Good morning or evening for my message This a message to you that I appreciate the opportunity to review and contribute suggestions to the Draft Accessibility Standards for the Products Sector. Ensuring accessibility for persons with disabilities is vital for creating an inclusive society. I recommend that the standards emphasize not only physical access but also ease of use, clear instructions, and compatibility with assistive technologies. Regular updates and user feedback mechanisms should also be built into the standards to continuously improve accessibility. Thank you for prioritizing this important issue.

Favour: Upholds Arts. 14, 15, 21; enforces the RPwD Act (ss. 40–46); aligns with the SC (Rajive Raturi, Jeeja Ghosh, Vikash Kumar, 2025 digital access ruling); fulfills UNCRPD Art. 9; harmonizes with WCAG/ISO/EN; boosts procurement, consumer safety & market trust. Risks: Overlaps with CDSCO/FSSAI/MeitY; no testing/accreditation clarity; heavy MSME burden; weak enforcement hooks; procurement gap; labelling clutter; version lag; missing consumer GRM & market surveillance. Upgrades: Define “product/universal design”; add BIS IS17802, WCAG 2.2, EN 301 549; phased tiers (6/12/24m); dual conformity routes (SDoC + NABL labs); A-Mark label; procurement mandate; non-regression on updates; grievance dashboard; regulator coordination. Roadmap: T0–6m notify, labs, MSME helpdesk; 6–18m phased compliance & procurement; 18–36m expand scope, review, update refs. More Detailes attached in PDF

1. Appreciation for Initiative The draft is a positive step towards creating inclusive and barrier-free environments, aligning with the Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act, 2016. 2. Clarity and Detailing Some standards need more specific technical parameters (e.g., tactile indicators, auditory signals, product interface usability). Illustrative diagrams or case studies should be added for better comprehension. 3. Sector-Specific Guidelines Different product sectors (electronics, furniture, appliances, packaging) may need customized standards to address unique accessibility requirements. 4. Monitoring and Compliance Clear mechanisms for certification, compliance checks, and enforcement should be outlined. Periodic review should be included to ensure alignment with emerging technologies. 5. Stakeholder Engagement Continuous involvement of persons with disabilities, industry experts, and user groups should be ensured for real-world relevance and improvement.
