Some Lesser Known Facts
Lalita hails from Majalgaon and was born into a lower-middle-class family. | |
During her childhood, she dreamt of becoming a singer. | |
At the age of 7, she underwent a medical procedure where a mistaken diagnosis led to the incorrect removal of an underdeveloped testicle. | |
In 2010, Lalita became a member of the Maharashtra police force. | |
In 2017, she sought to transition from female to male and requested a month's leave for sex reassignment surgery, which was denied by the police department, leading to termination of employment. | |
Following a legal battle, Lalita approached the Bombay High Court, which formed a medical board at JJ Hospital consisting of various specialists to evaluate her eligibility for the procedure. | |
The medical board, comprising gynaecologists, radiologists, plastic surgeons, urologists, physicians, psychiatrists, and forensic experts, approved Lalita for the sex change operation. |
