New delhi, Sept. 7 -- The government has come up with draft accessibility standards for everyday products like kitchenware, furniture and grooming items, proposing rules such as universal design, braille, tactile features and clear labelling on them to ensure barrier-free access for persons with disabilities. The draft sets accessibility rules across 20 major categories of everyday use.
The standards mandate large-print labelling, easy-to-open packaging, and simplified instructions to address cognitive accessibility.P8
