A dream come true. Shared space with former CJI DY Chandrachud, a rare leader who lives the values he stands for — dignity, accessibility, equal rights for persons with disabilities. Grateful. Inspired. Recharged. 💛 #DisabilityRights #Inclusion #AccessibilityMatters

"Wheelchair booked in advance. Plane lands. No wheelchair." – Vir Das. If celebs get this treatment, imagine the everyday reality for disabled travellers. The apathy, the silence, and the media’s convenient indifference. Air India mxmindia.com/columns/shruti…

"It's not at all a problem, we will use four people to lift you along with the wheelchair." That’s the “solution” Air India Express offered Dr Satendra Singh, MD — a senior doctor and disability rights advocate — when they failed to provide an ambulift timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/noida/not…

Bharat Mandapam dazzled G20 guests. But ramps for disabled Indians? Missing or misused. Dr. Satendra Singh calls it out—not for clout, but because exclusion is state-sponsored. Access isn’t charity. It’s our right. 🧵tinyurl.com/2p98znht #AccessDenied #DisabilityRights

Digital India. But for whom? On #GAAD2025, the Supreme Court calls digital access a fundamental right. Yet blind professionals lose jobs to inaccessible portals. Accessibility ≠ favour. It's a right. Read my latest piece 🔗 lnkd.in/gTDXP-Cc #DisabilityRights AXSChat

A newsroom by people with intellectual disabilities for everyone. Norway’s TV BRA isn’t doing charity, it’s doing journalism. With rigour, humour, and accountability. Indian media, ready to move beyond tokenism? reasonstobecheerful.world/tv-bra-norway #Disability #Media #Inclusion #BillionStrong

Two years ago I wrote this: Does the Media Care About People with Invisible Disabilities like MS? shorturl.at/4dhHy Today is #WorldMSDay. We still judge what we can’t see. Still ignore pain that doesn’t fit a stereotype. #MultipleSclerosis #InvisibleDisability

June is Pride Month, but who gets left out of the rainbow? In this piece, I unpack how queer disabled voices are erased from both policy & pop culture. 🔗 Read now: shruti-pushkarna.medium.com/the-pride-we-d… #PrideMonth #DisabilityPride #QueerDisabled #Intersectionality #InclusionMatters

When the US slashes disability budgets, the ripple effect hits globally. Inclusion isn't a favour—it’s a right being erased in plain sight. My latest column on the apathy of power: ✂️ shruti-pushkarna.medium.com/budget-cuts-ap… #DisabilityRights #InclusionMatters #BillionStrong

On #WorldSickleCellDay sharing Nomesh Verma’s words from International Purple Fest, Goa - 2025: “14 lakh live with SCD, but only 1% have a UDID. Complex rules deny us rights, jobs, and schemes. Can we simplify this?” Policy without empathy is just paperwork. Will the govt act? Will the media spotlight?

Rewatched #InHerShoes for comfort, but saw a whole other story this time — one about invisible disability, mental health, and everything we overlook in a feel-good film. Perspective shifts everything. Read my latest: shruti-pushkarna.medium.com/who-gets-to-be… #disabilityinclusion #representation
