Hello, it's true that we are pushhing our demands for making the test accessible to visually impaired fellows. but, what, about those sections which are not as accessible with screen readers as compared to some other ones are? Here I am talking about maths and data interpretation I don't think that we have any practical wayout as of now to solve this issue. So in order to make it fully accessible the mathematical equations must be prepared in the desired format. Unfortunately it is not popular in india specially with government agencies. and secondly, if they make those equation based questions accessible then only we can think of a visually impaired candidate giving his or her test independently and a barear free exam. we have a long way to go. regards
