Abstract:
The right to education and employment is a universal right for all including the transgender where
the constitution of Bangladesh also ensures equal right and provides equality before law with the
prohibition of gender discrimination in availing education and employment facilities. Besides, the
government of Bangladesh showing its concern to the transgender recognized them in 2013. So,
this paper analyzes the support and enforcement of existing legal system of Bangladesh and the
ratio of their development through education and employment right. Thus, the main focus of this
research is to find out that how much such recognition changes their lifestyle and social
acceptance along with legal support. Therefore, it aims to uphold their right to education and
employment with an analytical discussion comparing with India and Pakistan. However, it is
prepared on the basis of a qualitative and quantitative research by content analysis, article views
and survey interview where apart from some exceptions, it is found that the transgender of
Bangladesh are not getting their education right for non-acceptance of their gender and
discrimination as a consequences they also deprived from their employment right where there is
no existing law which strictly shows its concern for facilitating the transgenders. However, further
studies obviously need to be much more broadly based for exploring it more
