The transparency of the hadrons produced in the $\gamma (n,p) \pi^-$ reaction in nuclei is calculated using the Glauber model modified by including the Fermi motion of the nucleon in the nucleus. Since the calculated results underestimates the measured transparency for $^4$He nucleus, the Glauber model is further modified by incorporating the short-range correlation of the nucleon and the color transparency of the hadron in the nucleus. The nuclear transparency of the $\gamma (n,p) \pi^-$ reaction is calculated for $\theta_{ \pi^-}$(c.m.) = 50$^{ \circ}$, 70$^{ \circ}$ and 90$^{ \circ}$. The calculated results are compared with the data reported for $^4$He nucleus.
