Dear Mr. Kayne and Parimala ji, Thank you both for taking the time to write in after Episode 4 with Mr. Rajdeep Sardesai.
Parimala ji, thank you especially for listening so closely. Your observation about the responses is a fair one; that tension is exactly what we hoped the format would surface. A press conference setting, with the panel putting questions directly, was a deliberate choice for this reason. It means a great deal that the episode reached you even though Radio Udaan isn't part of your usual listening. We are only part of the way through this series marking ten years of the Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act, 2016. More conversations are lined up as we look at what the decade has delivered, where the gaps remain, and the road ahead towards 2036. Every episode is Indian Sign Language accessible. Do stay with us — and please keep the feedback coming. It shapes what we do next. With warm regards, Danish Mahajan Radio Udaan On Sun, Sep 13, 2026 at 3:42 PM Parimala Bhat <[email protected]> wrote: > Thank you for such an excellent programme and interview with Rajdeep > Sardesai on what the media has done for disability issues over the past ten > years, especially as this year marks ten years of the Rights of Persons > with Disabilities Act. > > I also really appreciated the questions asked by the other interviewers.
