The transgender community in Kashmir is struggling for an identity, according to the first ethnographic study done on the community in the valley. There is not a single graveyard for the transgenders in Kashmir and they say they do not feel welcome in the places of worship. A transgender from Srinagar, Babloo, says, "Recently, when we cleaned a mosque, some people said they will not worship there because transgenders cleaned it. We feel as if we are not human beings when people behave with us like that."
