Dear Members, I am super excited to connect with you all.
Please join our WhatsApp group using the link below: https://chat.whatsapp.com/GCyDpOeficO10omWx6o2dK We will how we are creating India’s front-line voice in blind-accessible tourism. Through this exercise, we will ask better questions of whether tourist places, monuments and public visitor spaces labeled as “accessible” are actually accessible for visually impaired citizens beyond ramps. Our discussion added with your input will guide not only help in filing RTIs, but also let important stakeholders, ministries, media, disability leaders, tourism bodies and policy people understand the real gap.
