Hi,

There is nothing wrong with using the word Blind. The words Visually challenged
or visually impaired take-up significantly more space. It is better to call a
spade a spade.

Dear members,
I hope many of you on the list agree with me that it is better that we
atleast do not or stop using the word Blind and start using visually
challenged in our conversation.  I feel the phrase is more polite and
doesnot hurt the feelings who are visually challenged.
let us try to use it in our communication.
