After losing her mother, Aanchal began to lose her eyesight just before her Class 10 exams. Despite the emotional and physical challenges, she didn’t stop.
In this episode of Eyeway Conversations, Aanchal shares her powerful journey—from being denied admission due to her blindness to cracking CLAT and becoming a lawyer. Now working with the Vidhi Centre for Legal Policy, she’s helping shape a more inclusive legal and digital system in India.
Aanchal talks about:
Navigating mainstream education as a blind student
Facing institutional rejection and choosing law over medicine
Preparing for CLAT with minimal accessible resources
Working at top law firms and pushing for structural inclusion
Fighting for digital accessibility as a fundamental right
She also reflects on the recent Supreme Court judgment that recognised digital accessibility as part of the Right to Life under Article 21 of the Constitution.
