💨 Abstract

The Indian government has announced measures to support the rights and welfare of the LGBTQ+ community. These include allowing queer partners to open joint bank accounts and be treated as a single household for ration cards, strengthening healthcare access, and prohibiting conversion therapy. The government also aims to ensure prison visitation rights, safeguard transgender rights, and prevent violence against queer individuals.
