The PIL, filed by Mian Haji Saira, alleged the community members were being denied admissions in educational institutes which was a violation of their fundamental right to education.
Alleging they were being treated as aliens in the state, the petition said 9-year-old Shami and Komal (6), both members of the community, were denied admissions in private schools last year.
The petition alleged they were denied admission on the ground of their "third gender".
