Moreover, as Harish sir once told, it is not at all a problem for sighted people to differentiate between a one rupee coin and a ten rupee coin.
With hardly 10% vision left, even I can differentiate between a one rupee coin and a ten rupee coin provided the light is very good. So, you can understand how easy it is for sighted people. And, as Kanchan madam said, there is no use in writing to the list in this matter. I request the seniors to guide us whether we, as individuals, do anything in this regard. Like giving a representation with all our signatures, going to the media, making a dharna, etc. -- Vamshi.
