Accessibility statement

Saathi aims to conform to WCAG 2.2 Level AA, aligned with IS 17802 — the ICT accessibility standard mandated under the Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act, 2016.

What we build for

• Every action works with a keyboard alone — nothing requires dragging (SC 2.5.7).
• Touch targets are at least 24×24 px everywhere and 44×44 px on logging screens (SC 2.5.8).
• Every chart has a synchronized table or text alternative (SC 1.1.1).
• Status is always shown with an icon and a label, never colour alone (SC 1.4.1).
• Forms keep your input on errors, describe fixes in plain language, and support paste and password managers (SC 3.3.8).
• Multi-step forms save each step and never re-ask what you already answered (SC 3.3.7).
• Animations respect your reduced-motion system setting.
• Screen readers announce saves, sync status and celebrations through a polite live region (SC 4.1.3).

Known limitations (v1)

• Interface language is English only for now; Telugu and Hindi are planned.
• Some print-only sheets are optimised for paper rather than screen readers.
