💨 Abstract
Sri Lanka's first openly transgender candidate, Chanu Nimesha, is contesting the parliamentary election on Thursday, aiming to foster a more inclusive political culture. Transgender people in Sri Lanka, estimated at 1% of the population, often face social rejection and lack representation in political parties. Nimesha, 49, is contesting for the Socialist Party and her message of social justice has been well-received.
