Madhubala, a 29-year-old third gender, cast her vote for the first time in Delhi’s assembly elections, expressing hope for policies that empower and ensure safety for the community. With 1,261 third-gender voters in the capital, Madhubala, along with others like Tina Kinnar, emphasized the importance of voting as a democratic right.
