You are right Rajesh sir, We should not critesize such things. rather we should apriciate. But government is yet unable to involve actual practitioners in accessibility awareness and implementation planning what i know. We are aproaching to them. But know any reply from their side. We came to know after the happening of events.
Font changing option feature is only 1 aspect of web accessibility. There are lot many things to be taken care. I couldn't yet understand about audio options for images. Can any buddy explain me? Why government officers who are involved in accessibility awareness get aquented with GIGW and ministry of urban development guidelines for built infrastructure. If they know it then why they make such meaningless statements in media.
