Accessibility

What we are aiming for

This website aims to meet Level AA of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1. That is the level the Guidelines for Indian Government Websites and Apps 3.0 requires of government sites, and the obligation underlying it sits in Section 40 of the Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act 2016.

What we have done

• A skip link to the main content on every page
• Semantic headings, one H1 per page, and proper page landmarks
• Visible focus outlines on every link, button and form field
• Text that reflows without horizontal scrolling down to 320 pixels
• Every text and background pair measured against the 4.5 to 1 contrast minimum
• A keyboard accessible menu that closes on the Escape key, and a sideways scrolling strip that responds to arrow keys
• All motion disabled for anyone who has asked their device for reduced motion
• An accessibility panel with text size, high contrast, grayscale and link highlighting, on every page

What is not right yet

We would rather name these than let you discover them.

• We have not yet had this site tested by people who use screen readers daily. We intend to.
• We do not yet publish an Easy Read or plain language version of our material.
• We have not yet commissioned an independent audit.

Tell us

If something here is hard to use, write to info@sutraindia.org and tell us what happened and what you were using. We will reply, and we will say what we are going to do about it.

We can provide our material in other formats on request, including large print and plain text.
