Eunuchs are increasingly gaining their deserved political space in Delhi. First, in 2009, the Delhi Election Commission allowed them to enroll themselves and contest the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) elections as 'others' instead of male or female. This step freed them from age-old biases and gave them a new socio-political identity.
