Ensuring universal accessibility in the service sector is vital for building an inclusive and empowered India. The Draft Accessibility Standards under the Accessible India Campaign are a visionary and commendable step.

All government and private service centers, digital platforms, and rural “Village Chain” systems must ensure disability-friendly infrastructure, trained and sensitized staff, and continuous public awareness to promote true inclusion.

Accessibility is not charity — it is empowerment and equal opportunity for all.

These draft standards are formulated to establish non-negotiable requirements for the delivery of accessible, inclusive, and barrier-free services to persons with disabilities. They are grounded in the Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act, 2016 (RPwD Act), which mandates equal access, non-discrimination, and reasonable accommodation across all service domains.
