现在，印度铁路将变性人列为第三性别
NEW DELHI: Indian Railways and IRCTC have included "transgender as third gender" in the option alongside male and female in ticket reservation and cancellation forms.
The decision, which was taken on a representation made by a lawyer will include the facility for reservations and cancellations, both online as well offline.
印度铁路在订票一栏上把“变性人”列为第三性别供乘客订票时选择。
不仅网上订票可以选第三性别，而且线下订票也可以选。
The Delhi-based lawyer had made the representation after the Delhi high court in February had asked him to approach the Railway Ministry while disposing of his petition.
The ministry in its circular referred to the direction of the apex court of April 2014, which had said that hijras, eunuchs, apart from binary gender, be treated as third gender for protecting their rights.
"Supreme Court (in the judgement) has directed that Hijras, Eunuchs, apart from binary gender, be treated as third gender+ for the purpose of safeguarding their rights under Part III of our Constitution and the laws made by the parliament and the State Legislature.
“最高法院指示，海吉拉斯、太监和双性人，被视为第三性别，目的是保护宪法赋予他们的权利。”
【三泰虎注：海吉拉斯，在印度一些婚丧嫁娶的场合常可以看到一些穿着鲜艳的“纱丽”，化着浓妆，但从脸上看仍有很多男性特征的舞者。这就是神的舞者海吉拉斯，印度社会中的一个特殊人群。
海吉拉斯，传统上一些男孩在10~15岁的时候通过正式的宗教仪式被阉割，之后作为“海吉拉斯”，她们的主要工作就是在婚丧嫁娶的场合为主人祈福、驱邪避祸。这种人严格地保持着自己的操守，不酗酒、不吸毒、不进正规医院就医、不与外人交友。一般情况下，男孩要成为“海吉拉斯”必须出于自愿或得到家长的同意，他们要请一位年长的“海吉拉斯”作自己的“导师”，入门后，学生要承诺服从和忠诚于自己的导师，她们要称自己的导师为“母亲”。由于“海吉拉斯”的社会地位比较特殊，因此成为“海吉拉斯”后，她们往往会割断与原来家庭的联系，而彼此之间组成一个个小团体，几个小团体组成一个大团体。小团体是由“母亲”和她的几个“女儿”组成的，被称为“家庭”。她们称自己的团体为“母系福利社会”。有一个最高领导者。“海吉拉斯”大多住在条件较差的贫民区，她们每个人得来的收入都要交公，再由“母亲”进行分配。如果一个“家庭”的“母亲”去世，她们的房产将交给公社，由公社重新分配——百度百科】

Good move...I think other all Govt Sector should include them as 3rd gender. They have been humiliated since long and I think its time they should be treated as equal.

Show some respect.When you get an incurable disease you don''t say God humiliated and sit idle. You try to make the person who is suffering feel better even though cant cure him.Isn''t it?

Population of transgender is very less as compare to other genders.
Hence feel so some reservation quota should be there for them apart from reservation in general category whereas feel so it will take time for people to get adjusted with them in the same coach travelling..
跟其他性别比起来，变性人的人数很少的。
还不如给他们预留一定数量的车票，人们和他们坐在同一个车厢要一段时间才能调整过来
