hi , one more thing i will like to add . i believe ,that some or other PWDS and especially VI should enter into politics strongly . because in india if we want our rights,we need the help of politics . and once any PWD occupies a good position in politics,i think that our journey and efforts will be simpler .and ,will like to know about any such politician with any kind of disability .thanks On 11/16/13, avinash shahi <[email protected]> wrote:Discussion is going in right direction where I wanted this to head. You are right Grassroot movement was the base on which many Institutes/NGOs as superstructures standing today. But sadly, the zeal and commitment for snatching rights which is denied is missing today. reasons can be many, but that zeal and fire to die for our due is on decline. close-door discussions are supplementary methods and do not address grassroot hardships face by fellow beings. Moreover, In fact, In this eara where buzzword 'governance' is on Everybody's mind, and planning commission is busy in collating different vantage points for policy formulations and funds allocation our Representatives lack so called expertees.

But politics of representation in such committees is very covert. and question arises, do we have any credited Access Audit specialist among our blind people fraternity? This is the missing link of activism driven by Majority of NGOs working for blind people and they are yet to embrace activism which drives policy-making. On 11/16/13, Vamshi.

I think organisations like Swayam)I think) having people like SC Vasisht should be invited into such committees as they have worked on accessibility of public places in the past. I don't know how things happen at that level. But I think we should volunteer to offer expertise on complete accessibility at this stage of the project rather than just criticise it after it has been completed.

And accessibility of public places from vantage point of Visually challenged is not on a priority. I don't know any excess audit team where visually challenged is one of the members. Hope members will provide some data on this.

But certainly when PWD Act 1995 is about to be replaced perhaps thisdepartment has also felt the need that look, Disabled can also cometo lodge FIR independently. So you have legal capacity, you know. undoubtedly this announcement is a welcome move. Hope they act on this promise soon. http://www.indianexpress.com/news/soon-facilities-for-the-physically-challenged-at-all-police-stations/1195525/0 Delhi Police is now in the process of making arrangements for the physically challenged at all police stations and unit offices. The department is in talks with the Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment under the Government of India and an expert will be appointed to conduct an audit of all police stations and submit areport to the Ministry. The matter will be referred to the Ministryof Home Affairs for administrative sanctions and approval. Police sources told Newsline that the talks were initiated earlier this month after the department felt the need to equip its offices with facilities for the physically challenged. A senior police officer said: "The force is meant for the public and our job is to deal with the public. For physically challenged persons,we have decided that basic facilities need to be there to help themapproach us easily." The idea, police sources said, is to install physically challenged-friendly toilets and ramps for disabled persons at all 181 police stations, 11 offices of deputy commissioners of police andother unit offices. Police sources said the project, when approved,will be facilitated under the Scheme for Implementation of Persons with Disabilities Act.Sources said an expert has been identified and will be appointed bythe Ministry to conduct an audit of all the offices and prepare a report to make buildings physically challenged-friendly. "The Public Works department (PWD) will be asked to prepare an estimate of the cost of the entire project and submit the same to the department and the Ministry. The Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment will then fund the project. The matter will also be forwarded to the MHA for administrative approval and expenditure sanctions," the officer said. There are 181 police stations in the city, of which 113 police stations are running in their own buildings, 10 are under construction, 22 are yet to be constructed and 36 are yet to get their land."The police stations that are being constructed and those that havebeen approved and construction is slated to begin in the coming months, have taken care of the aspect. These too be will be audited," the officer said. -- Avinash Shahi M.Phil Research Scholar Centre for The Study of Law and Governance Jawaharlal Nehru University New Delhi India Register at the dedicated AccessIndia list for discussing accessibility of mobile phones / Tabs on: http://mail.accessindia.org.in/mailman/listinfo/mobile.accessindia_accessindia.org.in Search for old postings at: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ To unsubscribe send a message to [email protected] with the subject unsubscribe.
