Justice Ajith Kumar: Constitutional Right to Change Gender Through Surgical Intervention
Justice Ajith Kumar has ruled that individuals have a Constitutional right to change their gender through surgical intervention. In the order, Justice Kumar emphasized that if a person experiences gender dysphoria and feels a complete misalignment between their personality and physical body, they have the right to undergo surgical intervention to change their gender.
The Court argued that failure to recognize this inherent right would perpetuate the persistence of “gender identity disorder syndrome” in society. It highlighted the potential risks individuals face, such as suffering from disorders, anxiety, depression, negative self-image, and a dislike of their sexual anatomy.
The order further stated that when psychological interventions fail to alleviate the distress caused by gender dysphoria, surgical intervention should be encouraged and considered a necessity. The ruling emphasizes the importance of supporting individuals in their journey to align their physical gender with their internal identity.
