report on how to make films accessible for individuals with visual or hearing impairment. Justice Pratibha M Singh was dealing with a petition filed by persons with disabilities including a


law student, lawyers and a disability rights activist seeking a direction to Yash Raj Films, OTT (over-the-top) platforms and the government to make arrangements as per the Rights of Persons


with Disabilities Act, 2016.
