Hello Mujtaba Thanks for appreciation and insightful comments as always. I completely agree with you that, apart from getting companies and service providers to make their offerings inclusive, it is imperative for the community to also find their own solutions. TAN is an excellent example of this, and Kudos to Mr. Sunil and his team. Regarding your specific concerns with Swiggy and Zomato, I am happy to report some progress. Due to Amar’s persistent efforts, Zomato has indeed become quite accessible, and Zomato and Blinkit both are working rigourously towards this end and seeking regular feedback.Outlook<https://aka.ms/o0ukef> Please try both of them and let us know if there are any challenges. Regarding Swiggy, we had filed a case in Delhi High Court and are hopeful that something positive will come out. for iOS<https://aka.ms/o0ukef> ________________________________ From: [email protected] <[email protected]> on behalf of Mujtaba Merchant <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, January 10, 2026 11:31:13 AM To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Subject: RE: [AI] Mission Accessibility invites suggestions to undertake high impact causes benefiting persons with disability
Dear Mission Accessibility Team and fellow members, Thank you for this initiative. It is heartening to see funds being directed toward high-impact issues that truly move the needle for our community. While there are many outstanding accessibility hurdles, I believe we must prioritize issues that lack existing workarounds. In that light, I no longer consider the accessibility challenges with Swiggy and Zomato on iOS to be a priority for this specific fund. Thanks to Sunil and his team, we now have the TAN application, which brilliantly bridges the gap by providing an accessible interface for these services. Kudos to Sunil’s team for this implementation—it is a testament to what community-led development can achieve. I have two points to share with the community regarding this: 1. Feedback for the TAN App: To further improve the utility of the application, I suggest looking into increasing the list of restaurants and food outlets beyond those currently listed under the ONDC circle. 2. A Sincere Request to the Community: Although I am in no way sponsored by the developers or the business, I urge everyone to "jump on the bandwagon" and use this application. If we want to continue having accessible experiences and sustain such developments, we must support the businesses that prioritize our needs. I wish Mission Accessibility the very best in their endeavor to identify and tackle the 3-4 high-impact issues for the coming year.

Thanks again to those who supported us as part of our year-end donation campaign. We would like to deploy the funds that we have raised on 3-4 high impact issues that affect the PwD community at large. This will predominantly be through strategic litigation and, wherever the possibility of pursuing policy reforms without resorting to courts exists, that will be preferred. We therefore invite your suggestions on the issues/causes that we should be taking up. After we receive a good number of inputs, we'll run a poll and then identify the 3-4 issues we'll be working on this year through the funding we have gotten. please share your suggestions, if any, on this forum latest by 15th January, 2026.
