After its successful all-women cab network She-Taxi, Gender Park will soon launch G-Taxi which will be owned and operated by transgenders.<\/p>\n
G-Taxi stands for Gender Taxi and its aim is to provide a better means for livelihood for transgender community and to ensure them non-discriminatory treatment in society.<\/p>\n
‘G-Taxi’ is envisaged as an ‘equality taxi’, in which all travellers, irrespective of their gender, can avail service.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
If She-Taxi targeted mainly women commuters, ‘G-Taxi’ is envisaged as an ‘equality taxi’, in which all travellers, irrespective of their gender, can avail service. Like the She-Taxi, G-Taxi cabs will also have advanced security features, including GPS. The first fleet of G-Taxi cabs will be rolled out in Trivandrum this March.<\/p>\n
G-Taxis will not only provide a better income to the transgender but also a good opportunity to mingle with the mainstream society. People who avail the service of G-taxi can interact with them which will help change their mindset towards transgenders.<\/p>\n
With the launch of G-Taxi, Transgenders, who are striving hard to find a place in mainstream society, will soon turn entrepreneurs in Kerala.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
The first round of meetings with transgender members have been conducted and more detailed discussions will be held before the implementation of the programme.<\/p>\n
With the launch of G-Taxi, Transgenders, who are striving hard to find a place in mainstream society, will soon turn entrepreneurs in Kerala.<\/p>\n
Recently, the Humsafar Trust in Mumbai and Wings Travel launched India’s first and only LGBT community-powered radio cab service ‘Wings Rainbow<\/strong>‘.<\/p>\n
In many ways Kerala is setting a benchmark for other Indian states. Last year, Kerala has unveiled a transgender policy, becoming the first state in India to do so. The policy aims to give 25,000 transgender people in the state a platform to eventually be able to demand a right to equality, dignity, development and expression.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
