why do these people put capcha on all websites as if they are e-mail sites? what threats they have? no need of capcha for these sites. secondly, uploading documents in the image based PDF or original image itself should be banned.

not only Hindi, all the Indian languages should be rendered in Unicode.

the strong barrier is the image capture, this is to be strictly
removed from all website including IRCTC. secondly, the owners of the
websites upload the jpg files if any document to be shown on webpage.
and last, only unicode format is to be used, especially for hindi
text.

Case.No.9/1104/12-13
Dated: 22nd January, 2013



To

            The Cabinet Secretary,

            Cabinet Secretariat,

            Govt. of India,

            Rashtrapati Bhawan,

            New Delhi - 110 004



Subject: Regarding making all Government websites accessible to
citizens/persons with disabilities.



Reference: News item published in The Hindustan Times dated 22nd January,
2013.



Sir,



            In inviting your attention to the subject and reference
captioned above, I am directed to state as under:-



1.                  That the Chief Commissioner for Persons with
Disabilities, Department of Disability Affairs, Ministry of Social
Justice
&
Empowerment, Govt. of India has taken suo-moto cognizance of the
inaccessible status of most of the Government websites on the basis of a
news item published in the Hindustan Times dated 22nd January, 2013 (copy
enclosed for ready reference).



2.                  That it appears that most of the Government websites
are
inaccessible to citizens/persons with disabilities with the result that
citizens/persons with disabilities are unable to access useful
information
which is available to others.



3.                  That the office of the Hon'ble Prime Minister of
India,
appreciating the need and urgency of making all Government websites
accessible to all citizens/persons with disabilities is understood to
have
passed an order about three years back recommending that all Government
websites be made accessible to the disabled.



4.                  The National Informatics Centre (NIC), Govt. of India
had also issued guidelines that all Government websites should conform to
the international accessibility standards, the World Wide Web Consortium
(W3C) and the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0.



5.                  That it appears that despite the order by the PMO,
and
despite the guidelines issued by NIC, most of the Ministries/Departments
have done virtually nothing to make all Government websites accessible to
the citizens/persons with disabilities.



            In the above view of the matter, the Chief Commissioner for
Persons with Disabilities has advised as follows:-



(a)                That the Cabinet Secretary may be pleased to issue
directives to all the Ministries/Departments to make all Government
websites
accessible to citizens/persons with disabilities within a defined time
frame.



(b)               That action taken in the matter may be intimated to
this
Court/office within 30 days from the date of this communication.



Yours faithfully,

( S.S. Sinha )

Dy. Chief Commissioner
