Shadab,

Sorry, I neither said VIs don't have ability nor I said we are not potential. 

When you say HRs are instructed by the top management that not to hire VI. 
Which is that company? Only having the name, it's possible to investigate and 
sensitize them to hire eligible VI candidates. Yes, we can't generalize the 
statement when a X company is at fault. 

Tell me the scenario where VI is denied employment on disability and I shall be 
happy to talk to them provided candidate should be willing to cooperate and 
provide all necessary data during the process. 

Thanks,
