The accessibility and inclusivity of residential society are checked by local Guide

Thank you for tagging me in your post, @shaileno
It is interesting to see that residential places in your country are building ramps.
Ramps are the first aid, both inside and outside, to allow People with Limited Mobility easier access to facilities and greater ability to move. I speak of People with Limited Mobility instead of People with Disabilities (PWDs) because this gives a more precise idea of ​​the vastness of the users involved.

Can you geolocate them in a more accurate position than just “India”, e.g. by sharing the Position in Google Maps of the place you visited?
Contributing to Google Maps by adding accessibility information about places (in our reviews, with photos, by answering accessibility questions) helps users find and reach accessible places, improving their lives.
Do you have any tip for others about how to improve the information about accessibility in Google Maps?

A curiosity: Is the construction of accessible buildings defined by law in your country? In my country, in Italy, all new private buildings for public use (shops, restaurants, commercial and consultancy activities) must be accessible. In addition, all public administration offices and schools must be accessible, and ramps and elevators must always be available. However, for commercial activities built before the law came into force, this is not mandatory.

A personal tip: make your post accessible too: here you will find some tips on how to make it more readable also for visually impaired people. Avoid useless hashtags, which make reading and translation difficult for those who use a screen reader, and use a descriptive caption for your images.
