Several transgender personalities fall under those group including transgender male, transgender female, male to female and female to male. It also includes cross dressers (those who wear dresses of others), gender queer people (they feel they belong to both the genders of they do not belong to any gender) and transsexuals. A total of 4,87,803 transgender were plotted in India in census 2011. In all states, only Uttar Pradesh is having 1,37,465 transgender in total. Having this numeric position the main source of income or occupation of these populations are singing, dancing and asking for the money at different occasions like marriage, festivals and birth of child. Probably they do not play any role in the economic development of the society as well as the country, while they have more efficiency than other gender. This paper will discuss the social and educational status of transgender in reference to higher education with some issues of their social and educational adjustment. Further provides some useful suggestions to promote and situate them in the main stream of the society.

If we draw attention at all these different cultural groups, it has been studied that they have their specific ways of obtaining their practical mathematics. Ethnomathematics explores the diverse expressions of mathematical ideas. But nowadays it also involves the deliberations of issues related to society and culture and their impact on teaching and learning. The consonance of Ethnomathematics and mathematics education goes to explore with the fact that mathematics learning is a cultural and social process. This would also allow us to critically analyze the concept and role of ethnomathematics in mathematics education at present. In this paper before discussing its three basic roles, we will first draw a sample on how different researchers, who studied ethnomathematics, defined and conceptualized it. Summarize all views in common way with its shifting nature from practice of non-literate people to literate peoples. Further we will discuss how Ethnomathematics takes prominent sub-field of mathematics education and up to what extent it differs from mathematics education. With all above discussion lastly as its role we will present a discourse about its existence in every class rooms as a right of practice of students as well as teachers also.

Diversity is evident in individuals, the environment, and all aspects of life. Culture is very comprehensive concept that includes all the ways of being. Culture refers to the traditions, rituals, beliefs, and values that are shared amongst a group of individuals and Multiculturalism refers to the sharing of many cultures. The language and cultural situations of class rooms in India are like a mosaic with a bewildering variety of speech patterns. The students has many different aspects of life span like: cultural identity (name), age, sex, ethnography, race, intelligence, socioeconomic status, language, religion, learning styles, personality types, interests, values, etc. After mixing up these differences, the multicultural class room's takes place like a mosaic of many color pieces/spots. Then let us consider if we have to teach these type of multicultural and multilingual classrooms then what type of teaching skills, strategies or methods should be use? And what languages should be adequate for the medium of instruction in these multilinguistic class rooms?. These quests of education in India at different levels of classes can't be properly discussed without refers to its multicultural context. We know that each individual/person/student is a part of at least one culture. A teacher is also an active part of a culture thus whenever there is a need to buildup strategies and methods for teaching in culturally diverse class room, a teacher should have to prepare himself with the knowledge of diverse cultures of the present students. They should have to learn the student's background, family traditions, student's climate about their birthday celebration, process of nurturing etc. Taking these considerations in mind in this paper we will provide fundamental information of multicultural and multilinguistic class room profile of students in India. Many of the education commissions are also analyzes and recommends towards these problems, but what loopholes remains to fulfill, researcher will try to discuss with little efforts. Keywords: Multiculturalism, Multilingualism, culturally and linguistically diverse classroom. Introduction: The nature of our national composition demands the multicultural and multilingual preparation of teachers. Our nation is not just a melting pot wherein human and individual diversity fuses into a uniform structure (ideology). On the contrary, uniformity is a mosaic of oscillatory, diverse colors in which a cultural mixture forms a variegated whole called the Indian culture. This multicultural mosaic univocally defused in our Indian schools. National and regional demographic changes and distribution shifts Indian class rooms more diverse in its every aspect. This is the time when our schools urgently need teachers who serve as cultural translators and cultural brokers. " Cultural brokers and cultural translators mediate between the majority and minority cultures. They help minority students understand, adapt, and thrive in the academic and majority culture. At the same time, the teacher as cultural broker helps the school to understand, to adapt and serve all students " (Moore, 2012). In other words, the teacher as cultural broker bridges the cultural chasm and smoothes the cultural mismatch, by empowering students to achieved both

The purpose of Professional development or Professionalization of education is related to academic development of teacher student and management of learning environment for self regulation in the perspective of accountability. We try to move towards Professionalization from British period but in crude way, at that time we suffered from a lack of support or assistance, and was not adequately rewarded or recognized for their efforts to provide proper opportunities. The remarkable period is Radhakrishnan commission (1948) .Two important and purified effort are the Education Commission , and the National Policy on Education (1986), where subsequent efforts are made to modify education and adopt professionalization. These developments have obvious implications for education and teacher professionalism. The rationale underlying this view is that upgrading the teaching occupation will lead to improvements in the motivation and commitment of teachers, which in turn, will lead to improvements in teachers' performance, which will ultimately lead to improvements in student learning. In India professionalization creates new opportunities in the context of teaching learning. The possession and use of expert or specialist knowledge; responsibility to subject and wider society through voluntary commitment to a set of values that goes beyond those inherent in any employment relationship; and the exercise of autonomous thought judgment. Professionals are organized, trained, qualified or regulated, and creative. By identify these characteristics of professionals that appear to have fairly universal application through activity.
