Meet Manabi Bandhopadhyay, India s first transgender college principal from West Bengal

Meet Manabi Bandhopadhyay, India s first transgender college principal from West Bengal 34 A transgender from West Bengal, Manabi Bandopadhyay, made history on June 9, 2015, when she was made the college principal at Krishnagar Women s College in Nadia district. She is the first transgender to have achieved this feat. For me, it’s a long battle against ignorance. There was a time when I and even my father were threatened with (dire) consequences as I am a transgender. I spent my childhood in Nadia and it’s a comeback to my home with pride and dignity after a long battle. Ever since childhood, Manabi took preference to feminine habits and showed signs of being a girl. However, this irked her father who wanted her to work and earn, since she was the only son among two sisters.
