Eunuchs CRIMAL ACTIVETES in Lucknow ??
LUCKNOW: Residents of Lucknow have decided to challenge eunuchs. Extortion and terrorising tactics by eunuchs have been on the rise for quite sometime in the state capital. There have been over a dozen such cases in the past one month. But now resistance is on its way. Veteran's Sahayata Samiti has knocked at the doors of DIG, Lucknow for help.
The samiti members, led by its president Col Mohan Chandra Papnai (retired), alleged that eunuchs in general go on extortion spree virtually door-to-door. They demand anything between Rs 11,000 to one lakh depending on the occasion and the status of the family.
Residents are either forced to cough up the amount they demand or they are made to go through humiliating experience of listening to choicest expletives apart from the embarrassing situation which may end up in a 'nude eunuch dance'. They move around in sports utility and other luxury vehicles, claimed the samiti.
The samiti has also launched a helpline for the victims. To find a way out of this menace, the samiti has decided to hold a seminar on May 29. DIG DK Thakur has been invited as the chief guest in the seminar, the samiti president said.

HC allows hermaphrodite to sit for paramilitary forces exam
The Delhi HC has allowed a hermaphrodite to take the recruitment exam of the Sashastra Seema Bal. Earlier, the force had denied her employment, as she did not have ovaries. Overturning the home ministry observations, justice Geeta Mittal said, “The rejection of the petitioner… on grounds of medical un-fitness in the medical examinations and findings of Dr K Bhushan, Additional Director General, ministry of home affairs is arbitrary, irrational and illegal and hereby quashed”.
Geeta Luthra, counsel for Sunita (name changed), had filed a petition stating the force’s medical panel found her unfit for the job last year because she was a pseudo-hermaphrodite, a person who has ‘XX’, or female chromosomes but has masculine reproductive organs.
“The paramilitary forces’ medical panel declared her ‘unfit’ because she had her ovaries removed. The force turned down her appeal for a review, which a doctor from Sanjay Gandhi Medical Government Hospital in Lucknow strongly recommended,” Luthra told the court.
The court directed the force to evaluate the physical standards of the petitioner and conduct a physical efficiency test of the petitioner within a period of 3 months, after giving the petitioner at least 2 months notice of the date and time of the examination and test.
The judge said, “If the petitioner clears the same, she would be held entitled to forthwith recruitment”
Hijra/eunuch at Shivananda circle Harass women - Absence of police control
Hijra/eunuch at Shivananda circle - you saw a beggar earlier and now this. The police thinks that the job of controlling this menace in society is that of someone else. They perpetuate such rot and complain about it themselves. Sometimes the transgenders harass people badly. Do we need this rot if we call orselves educated? Nobody has organised rehabilitation into decent jobs
for them.

Eunuchs Prowling in Hyderabad
Law and Order has always been a problem in any Congress-I government in Andhra Pradesh. It is quite a problem even in the state capital with Eunuchs – young and even the old attacking innocent people and demanding for money. It is really a shame that this thing has never been curbed by the present government although I would say its never too late to act!
A number of Eunuchs get their make-ups done and hit the roads as early as 9 AM to prey on their victims. If its not your day then you might come under their attack from any direction! Especially the Himayat Nagar main road has become a dangerous zone for common public, in particular the young boys and girls who are inexperienced in dealing with these kind of rogues. One has got to be very alert from keeping away a distance from the approaching army of Hijras.
If you are somewhere in Himayat Nagar on your bike, then better turn back and see if there’s anyone likely to approach you and also left, right and straight to stay away from the possible harassment from these Eunuchs. Be very alert if you have a little kid with you, the best thing is to get inside some shop straightaway! Mind you, there could always be the possibilities of the Eunuchs even pulling out a knife to stab a person not yielding to their demands, they may not be backing away from creating any sort of physical damage to the victim, so it does make the entire episode very scary. Renuka Chowdharyji can you do something for the young women if not men who are becoming victims to this menace? This is not the ‘Talibisation’ that interests you but the ‘Eunuchisation’ happening in our AP State that is not filmed by our alert Electronic Media.
There is also a similar problem during train journeys in Andhra Pradesh. All of a sudden you have a bunch of Eunuchs entering the train and troubling the passengers. They first molest any young man and then demand money at the face. I was in the middle of a nice nap in a train at about 6 or 7 in the morning when a eunuch had come to wake me up in a disgusting manner. The moment I opened my eyes I had to see the horrifying face, something nobody wants to when they just wake up! As I had a laptop worth 50k with me, I thought it was better to shell down the money for safety.
This is an ever growing menace unless it is arrested. There was some sort of a welfare done for Eunuchs during the TDP regime, or atleast promised. I hope that the YSR government does treat this as an issue. I know they have no vote bank among the eunuchs who can’t vote but think about the common man on the street who is getting troubled by them. People would like you to do something Sir, we would love to see an ‘Indiramma Padhakam for Eunuchs’ or even on the name of our great Rajiv Gandhi. May be a 5-paise vaddi scheme for the eunuchs could do something positive for the society, please think over!
Eunuch Menace in Railways
I am a regular traveller in Southern Railways - Brindavan Express and Lalbagh Express between Chennai and Bangalore. For the past one year, there is a lot of trouble given by eunuch's to passengers in this sector. These people do not spare reservation compartments also. They target young men and demand money. If they are not given money they resort to slapping and pinching the men. They use foul language . This is such an inconevenience to passengers. Kindly do something at the earliest.
Same thing happened to me in Brindavan Exp. Its a serious issue because one of the eunuch(hijra) grabbed my younger son who was 4 at that time. Touched his face even his lips I guess. I saw that the eunuch had some spots near the mouth and some white pus kind of material was there. They smell bad anyway, and I guess they don't take a shower at all. After a few days my son started some itch near his mouth and under arms. He used to scratch a lot and I took him to a doctor, the doctor said it is a skin disease and it was contagious. The doctor gave him strong antibiotics for a two week period. My son was in the bed for 2 weeks crying because he could not eat anything, nor sleep due to the side effect of the antibiotics. After that the symptoms were gone and my son was alright. But the doctor said it may reappear again if my sons immune system is not strong enough. My son has to live with the fear the rest of his life.
Now here is my thought of reasoning, in what way are the eunuch's helpful in a society? They dont behave properly in public. They cannot reproduce. They don't want to work and earn money. I don't think they would donate anything back to the society. In fact I donated blood near my temple, when there was a blood drive.
I have seen some eunuch's working regular jobs like selling flowers or small cleaning jobs etc. But the ones on the trains are just ridiculous.
Eunuchs are a medical anomaly. If they are really born with an undefined genitalia they can be considered as eunuch. But the ones on the train are born with well defined organs and they go through a procedure of removing their genitalia by a blunt rusty knife. Of course they would transmit all kind of diseases to each other and to innocent people.
How ignorant can we be? We should come up with laws to abolish removing genitalia with knifes. If someone really wants to remove, they should go to a doctor. Yes it costs very much, so if they cannot afford that, they can keep the genitalia, what difference will it make?. Like Sati, dowry and child marriage are abolished, we should abolish this ritual of using blunt rusty knifes to perform surgery.
I mean there are lot of people born with deficiencies(being blind, no limbs or deaf etc.) So what is the big deal about genitalia? Why cant they just behave in a society? Is it that the laws are defined only for men and women? What about deaf, blind or handicapped people? can they behave ridiculously and get away with it?
Yes, I think the police should be very strict with them. They should not be allowed on trains without tickets.
Eunuch menace is back
Just last month, Bangalore Mirror reported that city police had decided to crack down on eunuchs extorting money from people at traffic signals. A few days after the report, eunuchs were not to be seen at several traffic signals. However, they seem to have returned to harass people. A bunch of eunuchs at Sony World signal, Koramangala, is particularly troublesome. This morning, I witnessed an unpleasant incident at that signal. Two eunuchs surrounded an auto and pestered the commuter to pay up. They were almost inside the auto, doing God knows what. When the signal finally turned green, one of them even got into the auto. I do not know what happened after that. But it was really scary to watch. Those of us who commute by two- or three-wheelers are the worst affected. What happened to all the promises of action against this menace?
Bangalore: Top cop gives his men three days to put an end to eunuch menace
Often, eunuchs make lewd gestures to force people shell out money
“We are very serious. We will be taking necessary action in three days. Many people have complained to me directly about problems they face from certain eunuchs,” Mirji told Bangalore Mirror.
Those who refuse to pay are showered with abuse, threatened, groped and sometimes even assaulted. In some places like Majestic, eunuchs even resort to chain snatching and robbery.
Unescorted young women are particularly vulnerable. Dona Mathew, a young techie, recounted a frightening experience. “Last week, I and two friends were travelling from Forum mall to Domlur in an auto.
Our auto stopped at the Sony World signal. Suddenly a hijra (in a saree) approached our auto. She first asked money and touched our heads as though blessing us. We were reluctant to give money, but then she started abusing us and warned us that she would kiss each of us on our mouth,” Dona said.
“When my friend gave her a Rs 5 coin she rejected it and asked for 100 rupees. My friend who was closer to the hijra got scared and gave her 100 rupees. But the hijra refused to relent. She wanted money from the other two of us as well and started making lewd and repulsive gestures.” Even the auto driver’s intercession failed to dissuade the hijra. The women in the auto were spared further indignity only because the lights turned green.
“Such incidents keep happening in various parts of the city and despite the presence of traffic police. The cops often look the other way,” Atul C, an executive with an MNC, said. But the police commissioner appears determined. “It is a serious issue. I think three days is enough to solve this problem and I am confident my men will get rid of such troublemakers,” Mirji reiterated.
On the orders of the city police commissioner, Upparpet police have already shifted more than 10 eunuchs indulging in such acts to Beggars Colony.
Eunuch menace near railway station
Eunuchs have become a nuisance to the already harassed public near the railway stations in the suburbs. These eunuchs take advantage of the slow moving traffic in and around the station area and pounce upon passengers alighting from rickshaws for alms.
They block the way and grab people's hands to compel them to give away money. Commuters allege that the traffic police and the police on duty are silent spectators. Office going ladies, young girls and college going students are the favourite targets of the eunuchs. Girls, women, young boys fear their misbehavior and vulgar comments. 
"We belong to the service class are have limited income. We try to save money by boarding share-a-rickshaw but these eunuchs try to grab whatever change we get in return from the auto rickshaw drivers. They are so strong that we can't even defend ourselves from their clutches. The police should chase them away and jail them. Only then they will stop harassing public," said Rohini Srivastav from Tilak chowk Kalyan west.
Harassed commuters say that they really want the authorities to take some strict action. "If the police will not act fast then we will be forced to thrash the eunuchs in public. That's the only way to stop this public nuisance," complained Kunal Karnik, Sameer Sawant and Rahil Shaikh from Kalyan west, students from RKT college, Ulhasnagar.
When DK Plus confronted the traffic policeman on duty he retorted, "We are here to regulate the traffic and not to mind the eunuchs. Police Inspector Avhad, Mahatma Police station, said, "We always take action against them, we have even sent them to jail for days together but they are freed by court on paying a negligible amount as fine. After keeping away for a few days they return to their spots and start begging again.
They run away as soon as they see a policeman. But as DK Plus has brought up this serious issue I will take strict action against them and place a few policemen on duty at this particular area to get rid of these culprits," assures Avhad.
GRP to crackdown on eunuchs' menace on trains
KANPUR: In order to tighten the noose around the eunuchs who 'extort'
money from the passengers on trains, additional director general of
police (railways) A K Jain has issued a circular asking the GRP
officials at Kanpur Central railway station to curb such illegal
practices.
Referring to the complaints made by a large number of passengers in
the recent past, Jain, in his circular, has said that eunuchs who
misbehave with passengers should be nabbed.
He has instructed the GRP officials to launch a drive at railway
stations across the state.
The GRP officials at Kanpur Central are presently on a lookout for
five eunuchs who have been involved in chain snatching, bag lifting
and money extortion on trains.
The officials admitted that some eunuchs were arrested earlier but all
were released for want of a solid proof.
"Eunuchs usually operate in groups of two or three. They board trains
and demand money from passengers. Those who confront them have to face
their wrath. Eunuchs strip themselves in public to embarrass the
passengers. Thus people usually give money to avoid such problems,"
GRP inspectorParamhans Mishra said.
He further said that at times, eunuchs also steal bags of passengers.
Showing a copy of the circular which he has received from the ADG,
Mishra said, "Instructions have come directly from the headquarters to
take stern action against eunuchs who demand money from passengers.
Presently we are conducting security drills at the station, which has
alarmed them. It is difficult to find them at the station or in
trains. But if they are found anywhere in and around the station, they
will be arrested. They will not be allowed to travel without tickets."
