New petition in Delhi High Court seeks accessible banking services for blind people

George Abraham, Founder of NGO Score Foundation, recently moved a Public Interest Litigation (PIL) at the Delhi High Court. The PIL states that banking facilities, especially, technological services, must be made accessible to visually impaired people. The PIL is scheduled for next hearing in April. George is convinced that the court will pass an order in favor of the disabled community. It has been over three years since the Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act, 2016 (RPWD) has been introduced to empower disabled community in India. Even now, central and state governments have failed to implement it. Due to inaccessibility, visually impaired people are unable to do things independently. Earlier this month, George Abraham, Founder of Score Foundation, moved a public interest litigation (PIL) with the Delhi High Court. The PIL states that all banking services, especially technological services, must be made accessible for the visually impaired community across the state.
