The aim of accessibility is to make the applications usable by people with disabilities.
Some examples might include:
Visually impaired people using screen readers.
People with motor function impairments using the keyboard to activate website functionality.
People with hearing impairments relying on captions/subtitles or other text alternatives for audio/video content.

In order to make the application accessible we can do the following steps.
Add TextMode="Date" in the text boxes we need to make accessible, as in the example below. <asp:TextBox ID="txt_OccurrenceDateFrom" runat="server" TextMode="Date" MaxLength="10" Columns="10" CssClass="form-control input-lg full-width"></asp:TextBox>
Remove the Calendar Widgets from the pages, as it would be a duplicate, the text boxes would have a Calendar when we add textmode=date.
Remove Regular expression validators and the respective code in code behind.
Add compare validators, I have researched, and these validators seem to be working best. <asp:CompareValidator id="dateValidatorFrom" meta:resourcekey="invalidOccurrenceDateFrom" runat="server" Type="Date" Operator="DataTypeCheck" Display="Dynamic" ControlToValidate="txt_OccurrenceDateFrom"></asp:CompareValidator>
Test with Screen Reader NVDA.
