The Kerala government has decided to give transgender students who are enrolled in BSc nursing programs in their state reservations, which is a historic decision. “Transgender people have been given reservations in the nursing profession. Health Minister Veena George announced in a statement that one seat in the BSc nursing program and one seat in the general nursing program would be set aside for transgender students. For the first time ever, a reservation has been made for transgender people working in the nursing profession.
“This government is doing great work for the upliftment of the transgender community. In continuation of this, the representation of the transgender community will be ensured in the health sector as well”, added George.
The state government has been taking great initiatives for the upliftment of the marginalised community and the reservation in the nursing sector is part of such efforts.
“The reservation is envisaged to ensure the representation of the community members in the nursing sector as well,” the minister added.
