Dear Asif,
This is awesome news! Wish you all the best in your quest in addressing
this issue with the coins. There is so much effort on identifying the
coins as you mentioned, you will find it untrue to believe but a lot of
sighted people also complain about the same. This I believe is the first
step in addressing how a visually challenged person handles his money
Your mail also has a surprise that the RBI Governer was not aware that his
team had employed members of the VI community. I will not term it ignorant
but sometimes people are just lost in a system. I would also like you to
read this on wikipedia and gather some material for your meeting, the link
is below. A brief on what to expect on the link is that it talks about the
first ATM machine introduced in the world for visually disabled people, in
other words a talking ATM. My point in sharing this is simply that if they
can do it why cant we?
Again wishing you all the best with your meeting with them. Please find
the link below:
