"The Indian state of Tamil Nadu has appointed the nation's first transgender woman to the police force.
Prithika Yashini is among 21 sub-inspectors to receive orders from Salem police commissioner, Sumit Charan, to join the region's local service.
Having always dreamed of being a police officer, Ms Yashini told reporters her plan was to work hard and get into the national force."
