Why do you take such a Kafkaic view of things? I feel organising ourselves into a potent and strong lobby group will improve things for us in the long run. The reason why this hasn't happened so far is that we have been such a divided and disorganised lot and we certainly haven't learnt the merits of organisation from other groups. For one, I would like to see where it all lead our folks to?

However, the persons with disabilities are a scattered and a silent minority and have few resources, if any. So, it is a vicious circle: depleted resources lead to undermining their existence worse, apathy, and it in turn leads to further depletion of resources. However, on this note, I heard in the national news bulletin of all India radio last night that NFB has withdrawn their agitation after assurances from Rahul Gandhi about the implementation of recent Delhi High court judgment about full implementation of three percent reservation and revised calculation of backlog according to fresh interpretation of words "three percent" in PWD act and MSJ OM, which requires three percent of vacancies to be calculated as three percent of the total cadre in a particular class of services and not merely three percent of vacancies in the identified posts. Let us hope the judgment will be enforced in its true letter and spirit as it has potential to generate many jobs for VI and all disabled.
