How to use Gmail in standard view with screen readers?

Gmail is one of the most accessible Email service, most of us have Gmail ID and widely depending on it because of the friendly UI other than Yahoo and Outlook. Gmail provides two views- Basic HTML view for slow internet users and screen reader users, and the Standard view for all.
Most screen reader users are switching to Basic HTML view for getting more accessibility, avoiding Standard view. But it is not necessary, the standard view of Gmail works best with screen readers and browsers that support ARIA. I recently saw a mail titled “Using gmail on standard view with screen readers”. I visited the Google support link pasted in the mail and found interesting. I am sharing that link with you, read it and switch to Standard view!
