The Central Government has moved the Supreme Court seeking to transfer all challenges against the Transgender Persons (Protection of Rights) (Amendment) Act, 2026, from various High Courts to the apex court. Solicitor General Tushar Mehta argued that multiple hearings could lead to conflicting judgments.
