He raised a few problems like increasing impatience amongst transgenders for not getting work or money due to lockdown. To this, Amrit Kalsi shared, “Well, the very first thing to note here that this COVID-19 and lockdown is a Universal challenge, so we need to Accept this firstly. Until we will accept the situation we cannot pass this lockdown in a fruitful manner.” She further shared a few tips to have patience as things will come back to track soon.
