Though providing the technology to write the exams, still the scribe required, don’t know why. Experienced couple of exams and the keyboard functionality is completely disabled. As for the 2016 disability act, technology must enabled for people with disability, but, still there is no progress. But, we need to appreciate few of the organizations made by there efforts.

Hi Shankar, We all are aware of the bitter fact that many VI get in to banking services due to scribe. Scribe clears exam for the aspiring candidate. I don't know when this mal-practice is going to stop. VI people lack moral values. I feel Maths, reasoning and other essential skills should be checked during interview before candidate gets selected for the specific designation especially for VI.
