Something very important... will be discussed in the coming days...

#UrbanDevelopment #BLR
Can anyone guess what this is about ? :)
Yes. Many of you got it right.

This picture is indeed a Braille code at a public transport station.

As part of our #UrbanDevelopment #BLR discussions this week, we will now be looking at how ACCESSIBLE Bengaluru really is.
Firstly, i would humbly request the visually / physically / mentally challenged followers of this handle to actively participate in this conversation.

This is everything about you and the city's attitude towards you.

Living abroad, every day i notice what's lacking back home!
Be it Public transport, Medical assistance, Education, Living, Entertainment, Laws & Rights etc etc... Many countries across the world have been putting a lot into word and practice in terms of facilitating barrier-free living for those who have special needs.

#accessibility
#Accessibility is an OCEAN>.. To get a better perspective and easily understand the topic at hand, let us now watch something that best describes the issues many of the special needs people face and the solutions at hand.

Accessibility is not just about addressing Motor disabilities.

Accessibility is immensely required in all our digital solutions too.

In all the talk of "Digital India"... How many government services websites or applications are "accessibility ready" ?
WEB ACCESSIBILITY-

ENSURES websites, tools, and technologies are designed and developed so that people with disabilities can use them. More specifically, people can: perceive, understand, navigate, and interact with the Web.
Web accessibility ensures the applications and websites have the below principles inbuilt:

÷Keyboard friendly navigation
÷Reduced scrolling and mouse movements
÷Alt text for images
÷Safe colours; easy to view
÷Easy form filling
÷Responsive design
÷No automatic media
Etc...
Of course...This is a different kind of #accessibility ..Or the lack of it 😒

"Ministers.... ಎಲ್ಲಿಧಾರಪ್ಪಾ!?
