Hi all, On Sunday morning, as part of a Constitution Day conference being held at the Supreme Court, I will be speaking on creating a disabled friendly judiciary. All Supreme Court judges and hc chief justices, along with other relevant stakeholders, will be in attendance. I plan on covering the following points. Let me know if you would like me to add anything. First, that all courts should frame an equal opportunity policy. Second, that they should amend the rules of practice and procedure to facilitate the filing of accessible court documents, especially, to begin with, in cases involving citizens with disabilities. Third, that they should appoint a grievance redressal officer for discrimination against the disabled who are part of their staff or interns. Fourth, that they should designate specific individuals who can attend to the needs of persons with disabilities in their interface with the court system. Fifth, that they should appoint accessibility committees to oversee all of this work. Let me know if you have any thoughts.
