I think in this case, the problem really is the lack of proper communication. While it may be true that the Managing Director's word is the final, you may want to try writing to the person with whom you were in touch before the interview and explain the situation. In cases like these explaining the situation clearly in a written form is better than speaking over the phone.

Please inform if there is any recourse possible. I had received a call for an interview from an Andheri, Mumbai based infrastructure equipment leasing company for an interview. The interview was to be conducted by the Vice President of the company. I had spoken with him before hand and he had casked me to come today for the interview. I had informed him regarding my blindness and he had said that only my ability mattered to him and thad my disability was not an issue. Today, I went for the interview and the Vice President was absent due to ill health. The watchman telephoned inside the office to find out if I had been called for an interview. The Managing Director informed me on the watchman's telephone that he would not give a blind person a job and refused to let me appear for the interview. I called the Vice President and he said that the Managing Director's word was final and he could do nothing. Unfortunately, as all these conversations happened on the telephone, there is no written proof of the discussion between me and the MD. Awaiting your suggestions.
