Hiremath Sent: Friday, March 8, 2019 4:03 PM To: AccessIndia: a list for discussing accessibility and issues concerning the disabled. <accessindia@accessindia.org.in> Subject: Re: [AI] New accessible coins for visually impaired people launched by Prime Minister Modi Hello, this is a very good move indeed by our honourable prime minister. However, it would be good to know, where we can get these coins, I mean, it takes lot of time to get circulated then we can see them or come into our hands. Are anywhere any banks have started to circulate them?
