Festivity mood spoilt by RG Kar tragedy, says Bengal transgender organisation

Garima Griho (Home for pride), a shelter home for homeless people of the transgender community and Kolkata’s only transgender-organised Durga Puja, said on Thursday that this year the festivity mood has been spoilt by the horrific RG Kar tragedy.

The head of Garima Griho



and a leading face of transgender rights activism in West Bengal Ranjita Sinha told IANS that although they had mega plans of festivity this year – considering that it is the seventh year of the Puja organised by them – the festivity mood was spoilt to a great extent because of the RG Kar tragedy.
