APD and IIM Bangalore Mark a Decade of the RPwD Act with the Launch of a Landmark Resource Book on Accessibility

Marking ten years of the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (RPwD) Act, 2016, Bengaluru-based The Association of People with Disability (APD), in partnership with the Indian Institute of Management Bangalore (IIMB), convened Purple Manthan: Decade of Disability Inclusion Reflecting on the RPwD Act 2016 on February 20, 2026. More than a commemorative milestone, Purple Manthan was positioned as a strategic stock-taking, asking a critical question: Have we moved from rights on paper to inclusion in practice? APDs Resource Book on Accessibility in Educational Institutions unveiled at Purple Manthan 2026, marking 10 years of the RPwD Act At the heart of the conclave was the launch of APDs Resource Book on Accessibility in Educational Institutions , a first-of-its-kind, practice-oriented guide designed to help schools, colleges, and universities embed accessibility across infrastructure, digital systems, pedagogy, and campus life. Developed by APD, the resource book distils over a decade of the organisations on-ground implementation experience, policy engagement, and institutional partnerships. It provides institutions with actionable frameworks, checklists, and design pathways to translate statutory mandates into measurable, everyday inclusion. Launching the book, Mrs Manmeet Nanda, Additional Secretary, Department of Empowerment of Persons with Disabilities (DEPwD), said, The RPwD Act laid the legal foundation for accessibility, but its true impact depends on how consistently and thoughtfully it is implemented on the ground. This resource book is a timely and valuable contribution, offering institutions a clear, practical roadmap to translate policy into everyday practice. By bridging the gap between legislation and lived experience, it has the potential to significantly strengthen inclusive education in India. Dr N. S. Senthil Kumar, Chief Executive Officer, APD , said, A decade after the RPwD Act, we must shift the conversation from compliance to commitment. Inclusion cannot remain a checklist; it must become a design principle. Through this Resource Book, APD seeks to equip institutions not just to meet legal standards, but to reimagine learning spaces where accessibility is foundational, not an afterthought. Purple Manthan is our call to action for the next decade, one anchored in accountability, collaboration, and measurable change. Purple Manthan 2026 featured high-level discussions on policy, practice, and innovation, with a strong emphasis on translating rights into real-world outcomes. Three thematic sessions, on Livelihoods, Accessibility, and Governance & Data,explored the structural and intersectional barriers that continue to limit full participation. APD anchored the accessibility-focused session , moderated by Dr Bhumika Modh, Head Policy Advocacy and Collaborations, APD , which examined the shift from legal mandates to mainstream implementation. The session explored how inclusive design, community-based approaches, and technological innovation can collectively build enabling environments for participation across physical and digital spaces. The conclave concluded with The Manthan , an interactive strategy articulation session led by Prof. Anil Suraj of IIM Bangalore , consolidating cross-sector insights into forward-looking recommendations for the next decade.

How the VinFast VF 6 Is Winning Over Women Drivers in India

With surround view, smart safety systems and strong warranties, the VF 6 helps drivers, especially women, manage Indias roads with a little more ease and a lot more confidence. With surround view, smart safety systems and strong warranties, the VF 6 helps drivers, especially women, manage Indias roads with a little more ease and a lot more confidence On a humid Tuesday evening in Chennai, Ananya crawls along Cathedral Road, negotiating what can only be described as a live-action obstacle course. Scooters skim past her mirrors. An auto rickshaw darts in like it owns the lane. A delivery van brakes abruptly, because of course it does. She taps a button, glances at the 360-degree surround view on her screen, and slides neatly into a tight parking slot outside her daughters dance class. I used to circle the block three times before parking , she says. Now I just park . Ananya drives the VinFast VF 6, which was a gift from her husband on their sixth wedding anniversary. For her, the switch was initially just a chance to try something new. But over time, it has become something more, almost as if it were designed for the kind of daily negotiations Indian women drivers make on the road. Safety In Numbers, And More In January, the VF 6 earned a full 5-star rating from Indias Bharat NCAP, the countrys official crash test programme, scoring 27.13 out of 32 in Adult Occupant Protection and 44.41 out of 49 in Child Occupant Protection. In side impact tests, it delivered full marks for adult and child occupants. For many women, safety is not an abstract concept. If I am driving my six-year-old across the city, I want reassurance that the car is safe , says Ananya . Crash ratings matter. A lot . The VF 6 backs that up with 7 airbags, including curtain airbags, and a reinforced structure that showed its mettle in the Bharat NCAP frontal impact test. Safety also means surviving what is outside the car: Delhis winter smog. Bengalurus construction dust. Mumbais humidity. The VF 6 addresses this with a PM1.0 air filter and air ionizer on select variants. It sounds technical, but the effect is immediate. For women driving with children or elderly family members, cabin air quality is part of everyday health management, less coughing, fewer complaints from the back seat. For the long term, the VF 6 offers a 7 year or 160,000 km vehicle warranty and an 8 year unlimited kilometre battery warranty in Asia markets. Long coverage reduces financial anxiety, especially for first-time EV buyers. See Everything With 360-Degree View If one feature comes up again and again, it is the 360-degree Surround View Monitor. In dense traffic, spatial awareness is survival. The birds eye view stitches together feeds from multiple cameras, showing scooters, stray dogs, low boundary walls, and unpredictable pedestrians. In practical terms, this reduces stress and the likelihood of minor scrapes that turn into major repair bills. Add Blind Spot Detection, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, and Automatic Emergency Braking on higher variants, and the car quietly compensates for what Indian traffic throws at you. A VF 6 owner may not control the biker who appears out of nowhere, but the car certainly helps level the playing field. The VF 6 offers selectable drive modes and a steering system tuned to be light at low speeds and stable at higher speeds. In city conditions, that lighter steering reduces fatigue during parking and tight U turns. It also comes with 190 mm ground clearance and a compact 4.2 metre length, a sweet spot for navigating broken roads and narrow lanes without feeling oversized. Recognition Beyond the Showroom In December 2025 and early 2026, the VF 6 kept showing up on Indias automotive awards lists, which is usually a good sign that something is working. At the Autocar India Awards 2026, it won Value for Money Car of the Year , recognised for its strong balance of pricing, equipment and everyday usability. At the Auto9 Awards 2026, the VF 6 was honoured again for its overall proposition, alongside VinFasts brand win for New Entrant of the Year . More recently, at the Auto Excellence Awards 2026, it secured Value for Money EV of the Year, further cementing its reputation as a smart, well-equipped electric SUV at an accessible price point. These awards, from respected Indian industry programmes, underscore the VF 6s ability to combine practical appeal with real-world performance and competitive positioning across multiple independent evaluations. A Shift in Who Is at the Wheel As the ones who hold up half the sky, women can and should be part of the EV adoption curve, ideally as the ones asking the tough questions at the showroom. In that context, and in line with VinFasts vision of EV for all , the VF 6 does not sideline women. It makes its case not with a single headline feature, but with a combination of safety credentials, 360 degree visibility, adaptive steering, air filtration, and a long warranty that come together as a coherent daily tool. Ananya sums it up as she pulls out of her parking spot with a quick glance at the surround view. I do not feel like I am managing the car , she says. I feel like it is helping me manage the road . About VinFast VinFast (NASDAQ: VFS), a subsidiary of Vingroup JSC, one of Vietnam's largest conglomerates, is a pure-play electric vehicle manufacturer with the mission of making EVs accessible to everyone. VinFast's product lineup includes a wide range of electric SUVs, e-scooters, and e-buses. The company is rapidly expanding its global distribution network and manufacturing capabilities with facilities in Vietnam, India, and planned operations in the United States. The company's Thoothukudi facility in Tamil Nadu represents a $500 million investment and will produce 150,000 vehicles annually when fully operational, creating approximately 3,500 direct jobs. vinfastauto.in
