| Description: | "This report employs a similar understanding of access to justice in the context of queer persons in India. As the observations by the Special Rapporteur above indicate, access to justice is both a procedural and substantive concept that includes several relevant rights, such as equality and nondiscrimination, the right to recognition as a person before the law, and the right to effective remedies." |
