Want to know about some fact about SRS?
Castration is illegal in India, and Sex Reassignment Surgery (SRS) is legally ambiguous. Therefore, those who wish to undergo a sex change surgery operation (SRS) have to go to private clinics, and sometimes suffer physical and mental trauma because the process is often incomplete especially in India. The cost of the operation is very high there (around 45 lakhs Indian Rupees). As an alternative, the Hirja Community (one of the Indian Community in India) has devised 'nirvana', a process of castration done in the traditional way.
Legalisation of sex change surgery (SRS) would provide this surgery and its accompanying counseling at subsidized rates for the working class community. A proper sex reassignment SRS not only consists of a surgical operation. It also includes counseling, before and after the operation, hormonal treatment to enhance the physical changes, and a medical follow-up, to prevent the risks attached to the surgical intervention. But when the intervention is carried out in private clinics, transgender patients hardly receive any of these, and are left vulnerable to various infections, medical complications, and post-intervention psychological distress. To improve his community's situation, Christy Raj is engaged in Sangama, an NGO that provides support for the counseling process. He also belongs to an activist network that lobbies the government to subsidized the surgery, as is the case in Tamil Nadu. He has numerous friends who have undergone sex change surgery (SRS) and now lead happy lives, ultimately at peace with their gender identity. He hopes that his video will help improve the situation of the transgender community, and eventually grant them the right to fully choose their sexual identity.

My name is Prapha, 26 years old. I am female to male transgender. i have done the Sex Reassignent surgery (SRS). In india SRS surgery is not legal. and this poses a big problems for the community. i just would like to explain how i did SRS in spite of its illegal in the country. i have had alot of health problems after the SRS surgery because it wasn't perform properly. its not just about surgery but counseling is also necessary before and after SRS surgery. my first underwent castration in 2003-04. i did my vaginal surgery in Bangalore it was an unsuccessful process and i fail to get proper medicare afterwards. i couldn't go back to ask what had gone wrong, and i couldn't even file a case because its against the law. the entire procedure ended up costing me about 2 to 3 lakh (about US $7000) this included vaginal surgery, breast enhancement harmonal injections etc. i was generally confused about the SRS process. because it was not legal. i had to get it done privately and spend a lot of money. at the end, i want our government to legalise sex reassignment SRS and provide free surgeries for the transgender community.
