Bihar Transgender Welfare Board Member Demands Office, Threatens Action
Imagine a group of people working to help transgender people in Bihar, India.
They were given a lot of money but don't have an office to work from.
One of the members, Rajan Singh, is upset because they need a place to meet and do their work.
They are also unhappy with their pay.
He is now demanding the government gives them an office, threatening to take over a government official's home if they don't get one soon.
He also believes that someone from the transgender community should be in charge.
The members hope a transgender person becomes chief minister after the next elections.
The Bihar State Transgender Welfare Board was formed a month before the report.
Board member Rajan Singh stated no office had been allotted to the Board.
Rs 352 crore was allotted for the Board but provisions were lacking.
Singh issued a legal notice to the Bihar government.
Singh threatened to seize the home of a minister if an office was not provided.
