A PIL in the Delhi High Court on Monday sought direction to authorities to construct separate washrooms for the third gender on the ground that the absence of separate public toilets for transgenders make them prone to sexual assault and harassment.

A Noida-based private institute has set up a gender-neutral toilet after its sole transgender student highlighted the problem of choosing between the men's and women's bathroom.

Ms Singh, 30, a transgender, runs an NGO for her community.
