Re: [AI] : Not a disabled friendly electoral system

2013-12-05 Thread Vedprakash
However, in case of VI, the serial Numbers of the contesting candidates were 
written in braille. The election staff had the paper written in braille 
stating clearly each candidate, his party and Number.

on the EVM the numbers were written in braille in front of each button.
So there was no need of any assistance.
As the light signal for the voting came, the long beep sound followed which 
meant that the vote has been registered.

Subject: [AI] : Not a disabled friendly electoral system


Today's 'The Hindu' has covered the problems faced by disabled voters in
high-tech Delhi Elections.

Not a disabled friendly electoral system
5 December 2013

While it tried through media campaigns to improve the voter turnout for the
Delhi Assembly elections, a large number of persons with disability (PwDs)
were still unable to reach the polling booths — as they were not disabled
friendly — and could not exercise their franchise.

A case in point was that of Neeru Gautam, who works in the disability
sector with Sahyogi. A resident of Block 34 of West Patel Nagar, Ms. Gautam
decided to cast her vote by taking her power chair all the way to the
polling station in Block 26 Community Centre.

However, on reaching her polling booth, she realised there was no ramp to
enter and the entrance to the room was also blocked by a wooden pole which
had been put in the middle of the passage to segregate the incoming and
leaving voters.

“As my chair could not enter the room, I asked the election staff to come
out and help me cast my vote. But despite repeated pleas, no one came
forward. Then one person offered to lift me physically, which I refused
outright and I came back without casting my vote,” she rued.

Ms. Gautam incidentally had been voting in every election. “Earlier, I had
a helper who would take me inside the booth but ever since I became
independent due to my power chair, I have not felt the need for one. The
Election Commission should have ensured ramps and barrier-free access for
the PwDs in this election.”

Some PwDs also vented their anger on social networking sites. Abha
Khetarpal, a wheelchair user and president of NGO Cross the Hurdles, wrote
on the Facebook page of Dr. Satendra Singh, Coordinator with the Enabling
Unit of the Equal Opportunity Cell of the University College of Medical
Sciences, how polling booth number A-28 in Subhash Nagar, where she had to
cast her vote, had no ramps for wheelchair users and no Braille stickers.

She commented: “So, in this politics of vote bank, polling stations are
inaccessible. How can this be called government of the people, by the
people and for the people?”

Ms. Khetarpal also noted the media often asks for proof about such
shortcomings in the electoral system. “But taking pictures is not allowed —
a disabled system indeed.”

For his part, Dr. Singh said: “I haven’t seen any attempts on the part of
the Election Commission to publicise voting facilities for the disabled.
There is no information on radio or media. However, kudos to the EC Delhi
to finally make their website accessible to visually impaired. Sadly, EC’s
website is still inaccessible.”

Despite the heavy odds, some PwD voters remained determined to cast their
vote. Virender Kalra, a bank manager and a resident of Subhash Nagar, was
one of them. When he found there was no ramp for his wheelchair to climb
on, he got two persons to lift him and take him inside the polling booth.
“I was determined to vote and did so to play my role in ensuring a healthy
democracy,” he said.

Hi all,

Has anyone voted in the Delhi state election? If so, was there any
accessible way to know which button to press on the eletronic voting 
machine

or EVM? I ask because I did not find it but I was in a hurry so may have
missed something.

But I found the numbers written in braille.
Initially, I could not locate the numbers. but when I touched the machine 
very carefully, I found the braille indicators after each button.
The pressing area was lower than the point where the numbers were written. 
The numbers were on the right side of the button and were clear enough to 
feel.

Re: [AI] Strange problem

2013-12-05 Thread Amiyo Biswas
The Explorer application by default creates a preview of the selected items. 
Naturally, it takes time. Jaws takes longer to initialise the information it 
reads out. The problem may not be noticeable in most cases. But I faced it 
and the trick I wrote about solved my problem.


The preview is important in a folder of images where a sighted person can 
see the images without actually opening the jpg or fif file. In such a 
situation you can turn on the preview window using alt+p command.


However, as I wrote, I am not sure if it would solve the problem of my 
friend. I just asked him to give it a try.

[AI] Accessible voting machine!

2013-12-05 Thread George Abraham
Friends,

 

I do not think merely providing Braille on the EVMs buttons is the
solution. Most blind voters will not be able to read Braille. The solution
has to be more universal. Providing Braille notings on buttons is a cut and
paste solution. We need to take the matter with the EVM manufacturers or
the EC needs to understand the issue of access and then come up with a
solution.

 

I would like to take the matter up with the EC post the 8th of December.
Anyone wanting to join me can connect with me off the list.

 

Regards,

 

George

[AI] SMS alerts to stop able-bodied from hopping onto coaches for disabled

2013-12-05 Thread Pradeep banakar
The plan, announced a day after World Disability Day on Tuesday, will help 
thousands of handicapped passengers protect their allotted space on local 
trains. 

The Railway Protection Force (RPF) of the Western Railway has planned a special 
SMS alert system to prevent able-bodied people from using compartments reserved 
for handicapped persons. 

This initiative comes in the wake of an aggressive campaign by disabled rights 
groups which have been stopping suburban trains where compartments for the 
disabled have been occupied by able-bodied people. 

Mahim Swami, chief security commissioner and inspector general of the RPF, 
said, We will co-ordinate with the public relations office of the Western 
Railway to implement the SMS alert plan, with the help of mobile phone service 
providers. 

The SMS plan was revealed a day after World Disability Day, which was observed 
on Tuesday, and would help handicapped travelers protect their space on local 
trains. 

Bothered by the crowds of able-bodied people regularly misusing handicapped 
reserved compartments, activists have been taking recourse to pulling the 
emergency alarm chain to stop trains and get these people out. This results in 
delays and affects the punctuality of services. 

Strangely, even the heavy fine of Rs500 on those caught traveling in a 
compartment reserved for the handicapped hasn't deterred these offenders. 

Swami said the railway police had also launched a special drive on Tuesday 
against able-bodied commuters traveling in compartments for the handicapped. 

The SMS that will go out soon reads: Please don't board the coach for the 
disabled on your train journey. It is especially reserved for physically 
handicapped commuters. Unauthorised commuters boarding these compartments, will 
be prosecuted by the RPF under the Railways Act. 

The officials say announcements at stations have failed to stop unauthorised 
commuters using compartment for the handicapped. But they believe that the SMS 
campaign would make a difference. 

Sunil Chimulkar, secretary, Disability Advocacy Group (Mumbai division), 
appreciated the SMS initiative saying it would help to reduce illegal travelers 
and make travel for handicapped commuters less taxing. 

Chimulkar and Jeetendra Karelia, president of the group, together with some 
regular handicapped commuters met Swami on Tuesday. 

What law says.
Under section 155 of the Indian Railways Act, an able-bodied commuter caught 
occupying a berth of seat reserved for the disabled can be fined Rs500.

Technology is not the only factor here. Yes, we need to explore
possibilities with the technologies the EC uses but alongside there is a
great need to sensitise and train the officers posted at the polling
booths. As far as the technology is concerned, I believe the EC has to be
involved with the process of creating access. All this would require
initial dialogue with the Commission.

Hi all,

This mail thread is really interesting because everybody is expressing
a new experience.
Mine is also a diff.

My sis, who is in Delhi, revealed a better experience of voting.
She told that she asked for a list of Braille to the concern person
and he smoothly provided the same.

If I would elaborate then in the list below information’s were provided-

1: serial number.
2: name of the candidate.
3: party name.
ETC.

She didn’t seek help from any sighted for knowing the serial number of
her choice.

After knowing the serial number from the Braille list, she moved
towards the EVM.
There, above every button serial number was written in Braille.
She just hit the button of her choice.

Re: [AI] Accessible voting machine!

2013-12-05 Thread Vivekananda Doddamani.
it's true Gorge Sir, until  unless we know the list of candidates and
their serial number then how will we come to know to which number we
have to press the button, on EVM machine if the names are provided
against the buttons it will take long time to read where there will be
more candidates, for example in Timarpur constituance there were 12
candidates we can't waste our time reading near EVM machine the other
people in the line will start shouting, so I request you to write to
Election Commission to provide Braille list of candidates outside the
Poling booth so that we can decide to which number we can press
button.

On 12/5/13, George Abraham geo...@eyeway.org wrote:
 Friends,



 I do not think merely providing Braille on the EVMs buttons is the
 solution. Most blind voters will not be able to read Braille. The solution
 has to be more universal. Providing Braille notings on buttons is a cut and
 paste solution. We need to take the matter with the EVM manufacturers or
 the EC needs to understand the issue of access and then come up with a
 solution.



 I would like to take the matter up with the EC post the 8th of December.
 Anyone wanting to join me can connect with me off the list.

Technology is not the only factor here. Yes, we need to explore
possibilities with the technologies the EC uses but alongside there is a
great need to sensitise and train the officers posted at the polling
booths. As far as the technology is concerned, I believe the EC has to be
involved with the process of creating access. All this would require
initial dialogue with the Commission.
