Apart from this, cooperation will also be given in common needs like connecting them with social welfare schemes, registering them in transgender portal and making ID cards, opening bank accounts. In this way, it will prove to be helpful in providing effective solutions to the health problems of the clinics and helping them to join the main stream of the society.
