Nirmala Sitharaman Hon’ble Finance Minister 15, Safdarjung Road, New Delhi 110029 Mr.Salil Parekh CEO Infosys Ltd Plot no. 44/97 A, 3rd cross, Electronic City, Hosur Road, Bengaluru - 560 100 Chief Commissioner of Persons with Disabilities, Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment, Sarojini House, 6, Bhagwandas Road, New Delhi 110001 Ms. Tarika Roy Joint Secretary Department of Empowerment of persons with Disabilities Ministry Of Social Justice and Empowerment Government of India Paryavaran Bhawan, B-II Block, 5th Floor, Lodhi Road, CGO Complex, New Delhi, 110003 Department of Financial Services Ministry of Finance 3rd Floor, Jeevan Deep Building Sansad Marg New Delhi-110001 Dear Sir/Madam, Subject: Inaccessibility of the new Income tax e-filing portal I am writing to you on behalf of myself and the visually impaired community in India and I would like to draw your attention to the fact that the Income Tax e- filing portal has become inaccessible. The website until recently was fully accessible i.e. a person with visual disability could file their own Income Tax Returns, check status etc. They did not need to depend on others. However the website is badly designed and executed and the Visually Impaired have lost their privacy and their independence. The visually impaired independently operate computers and mobile phones with the assistance of a screen reader which is a software that reads aloud the contents on the screen using voice synthesised speech. However, the current Income Tax e-filing portal cannot be accessed using the aforementioned screen reading software. Some of the issues that we are facing include: 1. Post login, the screen reader is unable to interact with the DOM meaningfully, which is why the navigation elements are not presented properly. 2. Menus and Submenus are not semantically marked up so the screen reader does not indicate them as such. 3. Structure of the website is missing therefore headings, paragraphs etc are not visible to the screen reader. This is a gross violation of the Rights of Persons With Disabilities Act, 2016, the rules made thereunder namely; the Rights of Persons With Disabilities Rules, 2017 and the standards on accessibility of information, communication and technologies prescribed thereunder namely; Guidelines for Indian Government Websites (Revised edition, includes Apps), 2018. Please take this matter up urgently so that the visually impaired tax payers do not miss out on the impending deadline. I look forward to your immediate action failing which I will be constrained to take legal action against you for the violation of our fundamental and statutory rights.
