It is raining beauty pageant titles in India it seems.
After UP’s Vidhisha Baliyan won the Miss Deaf World Pageant a few weeks ago – becoming the first Indian to do so, an Indian transgender model – Naaz Joshi has too found fame at an international beauty contest.
Joshi, has just been crowned ‘Miss World Diversity’ for the year 2019 – a competition specifically meant for transgenders.
The competition – which was held earlier this month in Mauritius saw Joshi defeating over 14 contestants from world-over – as she also got the titles for Miss Congeniality and Best National Costume, apart from winning the main crown.
Interestingly, this is Naaz’s third consecutive win at the competition – as she had also won in the year 2017 and 2018.
Here are some of her pictures, before, during and after the competition:
