Hello: I leave the last couple of questions to the students themselves; to answer the rest of them, I think some of the universities have special facilities in their libraries such as computers with screen readers which students can easily use. Some of the hostels, especially in Bangalore such as Mitrajyothi, NFB or NAB Karnataka have their own facilities where students can practice using computers with screen readers. Besides certain universities and NGOs, I don't know if there are any government-leve plans to train students in access technology.
