Hyderabad: Social Welfare Minister Koppula Eshwar on Saturday said the State government would extend necessary help for the transgender community and resolve their issues.
Interacting with them here, he assured that he would bring the problems being faced by the community to the Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao and resolve them at the earliest.
He advised community members to look for employment opportunities instead of seeking alms and if necessary self-employment training programmes would be organized soon. He said he would visit Karnataka, Tamil Nadu and Kerala with officials and study the welfare schemes meant for the community to implement them in the State.
A draft proposal would be prepared to ensure safety and security of the community and submit the same to the State government for perusal, the Minister said, underlining the importance of setting up of ‘ashramams’ to give shelter to transgender community.
