What kind of arrogance is this on the part of a visa office? In Spain will they be allowed to have an inaccessible visa office? This is absolutely illegal @IndiaInSpain
DRA India (Disability Rights Alliance)@DisabilityIndia

This lack of wheelchair accessibility at Chennai's Spain visa office is unacceptable and illegal under Indian and EU law @BLSintServices @SpainInIndia @IndiainSpain @MSJE_AIC @meenakshibalu is stuck facing steps for her 10:30 visa appointment because she's a wheelchair user! 😡

@Anbil_Mahesh the heat wave has started in earnest. Yet you have not directed schools to close. Schools are still having special classes in this heat and it threatens their health. Please issue strong directives that all schools should close immediately.

When a wheelchair icon is there in a flight's storage section, why is it dumped with other stuff and there's no place for assistive devices of a disabled person. Stowed in overhead storage caused injury to @meenakshibalu @airindia unacceptable!
Smitha Sadasivan@SmithaSadasiva5

@airindia @DGCAIndia what rules are you following? Why cant you ensure safety of passengers with disabilities. Why shd overhead bin be dumped with luggage & also assistive aids that it fell on the head of @meenakshibalu. Assistive devices should be kept in specific storage only.

@tspadmapriya @VinithaMurukes @jerivan @daneshaclude @Deepak_TMN @meenakshibalu @aisrao @Tn_Diff_abled @SmithaSadasiva5 @chennaicorp @ramyakannan We dream of accessible and inclusive toilets, but until then we will be crystal ball gazing and hoping the predictions and promises are fulfilled by the state.

Ban @YBMTravels and penalize the travels for not maintaining basic hygiene protocols. Private Buses charge more than trains and if they cannot provide basic cleanliness and hygiene their travel license should be withdrawn. @mkstalin @tamilnadutransport
Smitha Sadasivan@SmithaSadasiva5

@YBMTravels didnt follow safety& health protocols in their bus. This has created mental agony & health threats to all passengers inclduing children. So YBMtravels shd be banned immediately, compensation be given to all passengers @sivasankar1ss @CMOTamilnadu @mkstalin @tnstc_setc

@CMOTamilnadu @mkstalin @udaynidhistalin In the week when we celebrate International Day of Persons with Disabilities this is a really sad commentary on the disability commissionerate
DRA India (Disability Rights Alliance)@DisabilityIndia

Repairs at disability commissionerate could do with your speed @CMOTamilnadu @mkstalin ! Sole lift isn't working from Dec 2nd & drainage problem at sensory garden hasn't been fixed for months! Every office ground floor must have meeting rooms & single window counter as failsafe.

@Priyanshi50 @nsitharaman This woman is a product & perpetuator of systemic patriarchy & brahminical supremacy. t is precisely 'cos of her caste & economic privilege+social capital, that she can remain oblivious to what it means to live within patriarchy and brahminical superiority every day.

Dear Finance Minister @nsitharaman, you have just insulted ALL women globally. You have done a grave injustice to ALL women who are fighting patriarchy every single day to just get bare minimum opportunities. This is personal. I feel angry, disappointed, and insulted as a woman.

Dear Govt lawyer arguing in Supreme Court today re Rajive Raturi PIL on accessibility, you're misleading SCI by saying the 5 year deadline for retrofitting India is still underway. It expired on 14th June 2022. STILL not a single new / old accessible facility in India! Perjury?

.@CDSCO_INDIA_INF's press note muddied the ECP-prescription controversy so much that some people (including media) got back after the petition was shared asking if this was still an issue. Make no mistake, it is! Inspired by @PIBFactCheck's 'Myth vs Facts', here's an explainer!

Access to emergency contraceptives in India is at risk due to unclear regulations, and will impact cis women, teen girls, trans men, and sexual assault survivors . Please sign this petition for Levonorgestrel ECPs to be available OTC sans prescription. action.jhatkaa.org/Qfkam

No @CDSCO_INDIA_INF, the press release purportedly by you & media coverage with anon sources don't inspire confidence! 🆘 Women’s access to emergency contraceptives is under threat. Sign the petition to safeguard reproductive rights of all women in India: action.jhatkaa.org/IKOCJ

Accessible beach walkway @Marina beach was the product of years of lobbying by people with Disabilities with the state. How easily @chennaicorp Greater Chennai Corporation hijacked it for the IAF show these past few days without any conversation with people with disabilities🤬

@marina @chennaicorp When those who need to implement the law themselves abuse the law by misusing facilities for people with disabilities, who do we appeal to? If disabled people need to keep fighting each thing through PILs they will be in court every day - they already are for their basic rights!

@marina @chennaicorp There must be penalties imposed on those who are not disabled or elderly using the accessible walkway meant for people with disabilities. The first penalty must be levied from @chennaicorp and @IndianAirForce for totally hijacking it for VIPs🤬

@marina @chennaicorp Check your privilege "Temporarily Abled people" (TAB)/ people without disabilities: How easily you use the beach walkway meant for disabled people as your 🤳 points and lounge against the guard rails on either side of it - Do your realise you have no business being there? 🤬
