The Rajasthan High Court recently observed that the right of a human being to choose his/her sex or gender identity is integral to his or her personality and is one of the most basic aspects of self-determination, dignity and freedom. The court ordered authorities to consider changing the details in the service record of the petitioner who was born female. The petitioner secured a job in 2013 under the General Female Category but later underwent a gender reassignment surgery and started identifying herself as ‘male’.
