Karnataka HC questions 12-year delay in transgender education quota implementation
The Karnataka High Court has questioned the state government over its failure to implement reservation for transgender persons in educational institutions. The case was triggered after a transgender student was denied admission to the National Law School of India University (NLSIU) in Bangalore. The court highlighted that the Supreme Court's landmark 2014 NALSA judgment had already mandated such reservations for transgender individuals. Notably, Karnataka has been providing reservation for transgender persons in government jobs, making the absence of similar provisions in education harder to justify.
