Annayah Kumari Alex became the first ever transgender person to contest an assembly election in Kerala. She will be contesting from the Vengara constituency as a candidate of the Democratic Social Justice Party (DSJP). 
Annayah said she wants to focus on the welfare of the trans community.
"We (transgender persons) have capabilities like any male or female. We do not want any sympathy. We should be given equal treatment like other human beings. Transgender people are also talented like other humans and can represent themselves in any field," Anannyah said.
Anannyah further said that transgender persons should be proud of their own identity and must have confidence and self respect for themselves.
Anannyah would be competing against Indian Union Muslim League candidate, PK Kunhalikutty, and LDF candidate, P Jiji.
