MUMBAI â Naaz Joshi, Indiaâs first international transgender pageant winner, participated in the Gender Sensitization Program held in Sri Venkateswara College. The college conducted an interactive session for its students with Miss World Diversity 2017-2020 and Miss Universe Diversity 2021 Naaz Joshi. The aim was to create awareness about the inclusiveness of the third gender into society among the youth.
Joshi talked about her experiences as parent, transgender, beauty pageants and her  journey wherein she suffered hardships from society. âWe often hear beauty queens talking about Mother Teresa, Mahatma Gandhi and Nelson Mandela as their inspiration. How often do we hear them working on their promises? Most of them land up in films or sit at home with their titles. With a title comes responsibility.â
