Good suggestion. Do form up an AccessIndia taskforce team and draw up a
letter to petition to the Central Govt Communication Minister to protest
against the discriminotary practices followed by the Govt whereby the deaf
and hard-at-hearing are allowed free SMS service in India, then why not the
blind community of India? Start seeking consunces of other AI members.
Start brainstorming on what to include in the letter on AI Amarjit
.

I do endorse your stand, that like for basic phone, in which VI are given
50% deduction in monthly rent by government owned basic phone service
provider(MTNL and BSNL). Something similar kind of arrangement should be
made for broadband connection.

friends,
as we are all aware, internet is not a luxury but a necessity for the
visually challenged. in the absence of adequate amount of braille and
recorded materials, it is through the internet that the world of
letters
unfolds before us. even though i have been an english lecturer for the
past
thirteen years, i had not been able to read english newspapers and
journals
till i started using internet.further, we have to download a number of
audio
files which are very big in terms of KB. For us, internet is not a
supplementary medium but the only effective medium for information and
entertainment.
the state of affairs being like this, what do you think of demanding to
BSNL [at least] for making a reduction in their internet charges for
the
blind. BSNL employees already enjoy concession of this kind. why can't
we
ask organisations like AICB to take up this issue?i would like to know
your
responses.
Regards,
Thahir.
