The Kochi Metro project recently made headlines for hiring 23 transgender people as part of the staff ahead of the launch of the new train service. Now, a video of the new employees is going viral for a simple request they have made.
"When you look at me today, I don't want you to see someone who needs pity," one employee says in the video. "When you see me, don't look twice," says another.
