Dear Listeners, In the latest episode of Eyeway Conversations, George Abraham speaks with Dr. Sanjay Jain, a leading academic and advocate for disability rights, currently teaching at the National Law School of India University, Bangalore.
Blind since childhood, Dr. Jain shares how early exposure to music and social sciences eventually led him to pursue law—a field he believes offers immense potential for people with disabilities. From studying with braille in Dehradun to facing barriers in mainstream legal education, he reflects on the role of friendship, mentorship, and determination in shaping his journey. Dr. Jain also talks about: • His transition from researching feminism to exploring disability law • Contributing to accessibility reforms under the guidance of Chief Justice D.Y. Chandrachud, as part of a Supreme Court Committee • • Working on international projects focused on accessible public spaces • Systemic challenges in digital accessibility, especially in banking • Practical advice for aspiring blind lawyers This episode offers rare insights into inclusive legal education and the power of lived experience in driving change. Whether you're a student, educator, or advocate, you won't want to miss this inspiring conversation.
