Dear all,
Sometimes, all it takes is one case—or one conversation—to shift how
we think about rights.
What started as a legal challenge to an inaccessible website has
opened up a deeper question: Is digital accessibility a constitutional
right? What happens when persons with disabilities are systematically
left out of the digital public sphere—not because they lack skill or
interest, but because the design itself excludes them?
We’re hosting a conversation on exactly that, and I’d really love for
you to join us.
We will be discussing Pragya Prasun v. Union of India and Amar Jain v.
Union of India, wherein the Supreme Court recognised access to digital
services, as intrinsic to the right to life and liberty under Article 21.
🗓 Date: Monday, 21st July 2025
🕕 Time: 6:00 PM to 7:30 PM (High tea at 5:45 PM)
📍 Venue: Conference Room 2, India International Centre, New Delhi
Speakers:
– 1. Justice (Retd.) A.K. Sikri
2. Sidharth Luthra, Senior Advocate
3. Ila Sheel, advocate for the petitioner
4. Yamina Rizvi, Legal Officer, iProbono
5. Pragya Prasun, Petitioner
6. Amar Jain, Petitioner and co-founder, mission Accessibility
Moderated by:
Anchal Bhateja, Research Fellow (Disability Inclusion & Access), Vidhi
The conversation will bring together perspectives from the judiciary,
legal practice, activism, and lived experience to ask: what does equal
access mean in a digital age—and how can the Constitution help us get
there?
Would love to see you all there. Please register below.
