Hi all, Forgive me for saying this, but the mere notion of asking for a concession in the fuel rate sounds hilarious to me. I earnestly believe that we should focus on improving our efficiency rather than demanding concessions. As blind people, we do require some degree of accommodation in order to lead a productive and fulfilling life. That being said, we should also know where to draw the line. Our relentless search for such concessions reflects our intrinsic belief in the societal attitude towards persons with disabilities as objects of charity and sympathy. I, therefore, think that it would be wiser to ask for scholarships, etc to empower us instead of asking for concessions. Because, like I said, this need for concessions merely showcases our weakness.
These are just my personal views, and I do apologise if I have inadvertently offended anyone.
