    Transgenders strip naked, cause traffic woes in Delhi's Green Park

    What's the story

    In what can be seen as a protest against police crackdown on illegal activities, a group of transgenders stripped naked on the streets of Green Park in South Delhi, obviously causing traffic woes for the public.

    A video of the incident was recorded and widely shared on WhatsApp.

    A police officer said whenever transgenders were asked to move from one area, they reacted similarly.

    The protest

    Transgenders, some naked, some semi-naked, blocked roads

    Reportedly, a group of 8-10 transgenders, some naked, some semi-naked, staged a protest of sorts.

    The video purportedly showed one climbing on car's roof, another one lying on road, and another one patting own's private parts. Yet another transgender blocked the road to ensure vehicles didn't move.

    Seeing this, other transgenders who stood in corner, also started stripping.

    Reason

    Understanding reason behind this peculiar protest

    For over a month now, the Delhi police have launched a drive to prevent transgenders from encroaching roadsides and participating in illegal activities like prostitution.

    On Friday, the police took 6 transgenders in preventive custody from the stretch from Lajpat Nagar to Defence Colony.

    They hoped to provide transgenders better jobs through the Yuva Scheme, but the task has been far from easy.

    When asked to move, they strip and create ruckus: Police

    "They were asked to move from Hauz Khas area and they moved their base near the IIT Delhi gate. Whenever we ask them to move and not carry out the activities, they strip and create a ruckus," DNA quoted a police officer.
