100% agree with you Avinash, I think a special module on dealing with customers with disabilities must be introduced in every bank's quarterly/ anual training program. It can make each and every employee aware about the relevant RBI as well as web accessibility guidelines. I got to know that same is in process for RBS employees working with the retail business. What do you say?
