In terms of other responses, a couple of points. First, as regards the new suggestions that have come in, such as Broker one et cetera, my colleague colleague Tanishk, will shortly share with you the template that you can use to reach out to the service providers. At present, Mission Accessibility is pursuing complaints against more than 100 service providers that are in accessible. And therefore it is not in a position to take up any more of such matters on a pro bono basis. But you can use that template to send out notices and even file CCPD complaints on your own. Second, with respect to the point that Pinkesh made, our strategy is to wait for the six-month period that the CCPD has given to each service provider to play out. After that, we will spend no more than three months in trying to work with a CCPD to secure compliance of the directions issued by the CCPD. And if, on the expiry of this nine months, there are service providers which do not comply with the mandate as set for them by the CCPD, of which there will be many, we will combine all of them and approach the Supreme Court with a consolidated writ petition. That is the plan of action that we have in mind. Rahul

Will be great to hear if that is so. Kind regards, Yamuna Jivana dasa From: Mission Accessibility<mailto:[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, August 23, 2023 5:21 PM To: accessindia<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: [AI] MA Update | Progress on the CCPD Notices to Inaccessible Service Providers Dear All, We want to provide you with an update on the progress made over the CCPD notices sent to over 70 inaccessible platforms based on the list submitted by MA. Over the past two months, we have received responses from approximately 18 service providers. These responses include government entities like the Ministry of Law and Justice, RBI, SEBI, and the National Health Authority (NHA), as well as private entities such as Reliance Industries, Sodexo, Network18, Zee Entertainment, and Flo Health UK, among others. Among these 18 responses, entities like RBI, NHA, and the Indian Navy have asserted the presence of assistive features on their platforms. However, upon our inspection, we identified some lingering issues on their websites, prompting us to request the CCPD to issue orders for rectifying these persistent problems on their digital interfaces. Further, companies like Reliance Retail, Sedexo, and Sinhal Udyog have submitted their Equal Opportunity Policies and have committed to taking steps to ensure that their websites and applications become accessible. We are currently in the process of filing rejoinders to each of the responses received from these service providers. Additionally, we are sending out reminders to the remaining service providers, urging them to submit their replies. If they fail to do so, we will be initiating legal actions against such platforms. Thank you. -- Regards, Mission Accessibility Email<mailto:[email protected]> | Twitter <https://twitter.com/MissionAccess_> | LinkedIn<https://www.linkedin.com/company/mission-accessibility/> -- Disclaimer: 1.
