The struggles of the LGBT+ community has been a never-ending war for their peaceful existence; the fight for the welfare of the community has been on the streets of New Delhi since 1992 under the leadership of AIDS Bhedbhav Virodhi Andolan. Even with sexual diversity of individuals being a remarkable feature of Indian History, today heterosexuality has been made the norm which resulted in other sexual orientations considered wrong and inferior. Any individual with a different sexual orientation has been subjected to violence, discrimination, ostracization, etc. but studying further, it has been observed the existence of the community is not made difficult by the non-LGBTQ+ people but many a times the members of the community themselves are involved in the violence, discrimination, etc. of the other members due to various reasons. This research has been based on the existing literature, articles and research papers and aims to study the unseen challenges that the community faces daily, the history of the LGBTQ+ Movements in India and the role of the general community in working for the welfare of the community.
