Hello,

We are planning to purchase a projector for exhibitions in public places only. 
There are a lot of projectrors on flipkart ranging from Rs. 5,000 to 70,000. 
Can you suggest any model?

[AI] regarding use of photo identity card to book the railway ticket

2015-11-06 Thread mukesh jain
Hello,
Today, I have received my photo identity card to book my concessional
railway  ticket but I am unable to understand as in which format
number is to be entered while booking the ticket through IRCTC.

My card has 12 alphaneumeric characters i.e. initial 6 digits as
alphabets then six digits as numbers followed by space. So ehen I
enter this number as printed on the card I am unable to book my
ticket. So if  anyone on the list has used the said card through
IRCTC, kindly write the steps to enter the details of this card. After
entering the card, I have selected the category as handicapped still
no luck. So please share your experience.
Thanks in anticipation,

Re: [AI] Current account guidelines

Nirmal -
Sorry but I think it's time we may end up raising voice than just
educating. If ICICI says they don't have guidelines to let visually
impaired person open current account, do they have anywhere written it
should not be opened? Or did RBI or IBA told them to have accounts opened
for specific category of people??

I completely agree that ICICI is rather illiterate and I would even say
non-secured bank in this country. A while ago, they were running after me
to open an account even without any proof of documents. :-(

Re: [AI] Faking Disability: UPSC

2015-11-06 Thread Kanchan Pamnani
This is great work from Karnataka- verification of the certificates and action 
against doctors.  I hope this clean up continues 
On another   note :
UPSC gave 14 VI  placements recently. Out of these  only 3 had used writers in 
their exams. 
Out of the 11 -2 have been found not to be disabled and will or must have by 
now lost their placements. 2 others on the waiting list will be given jobs.
This was found only after a secondeye test. 
What about the 9 others -Were they really disabled
If you are 40% disabled and you don’t need a writer then do you need the 
reservation?
If I go back to my school exams- I must have always been 50% or more disabled I 
could have done with extra time. I didn’t need a writer nor would I have needed 
reservation.
Is it not time to lobby out of this 40% disablement for entitlements.
When you are told that Mr. X who has a 40% disability has come to the 
examination centre by driving his own car should you not complain to the 
authorities. I know that this does not cover the people who are hiding their 
ability and pretending to be disabled.

Subject: [AI] Faking Disability: A third of ‘disabled’ teachers may possess 
false certificates

It worries me as we go ahead in the 21st century. Disability
certificate is a prised document which enables non-disabled to
outclass disabled people in the job-market. Can we protect the right
to employment of hundred per cent blind people in India?
http://www.thehindu.com/news/cities/bangalore/a-third-of-disabled-teachers-may-possess-false-certificates/article7848431.ece

'Of the estimated 7,000 teachers, at least 2,500 may be using false
certificates'.

Nearly one-third of all government school teachers who have taken
employment under the disability quota may be either faking disability
or in possession of false certificates, K.S. Rajanna, State
Commissioner for Persons with Disabilities, has claimed.

Of the estimated 7,000 teachers, at least 2,500 may be using false
certificates, he told reporters on Thursday. “The number of teachers
employed under the disability quota (three per cent reservations
currently apply) is quite small … Even in this, we suspect based on
our examinations so far, that many may have used false certificates to
get the job,” he said.

In the last financial year, the office of the State Commissioner for
Persons with Disabilities had recommended action against 17 teachers
for producing false certificates to get jobs in Chintamani taluk of
Chickballapur district, while 2013 saw action against a man who had
obtained the post of a school principal in Bidar using forged
documents.

The Commissioner’s office, which has quasi-judicial powers, will now
summon all teachers who have been employed under this quota and start
the verification process in phases. “We will also find out the
government doctor who has given the medical certificate and take
action,” he said. Using disabilities or disease as an excuse for
either employment or transfers was exposed by The Hindu in August
2014, when 492 teachers were found to have sought transfers as they
were “terminally ill”. Thirty of these cases were re-examined, while
three officials in the Department of Public Instruction were suspended
for procedural violations

Re: [AI] Current account guidelines

2015-11-06 Thread Prashant Naik
From RBI’s first directive to all banks (RBI / 2007-08 / 358 DBOD.No.Leg
BC. 91 /09.07.005/2007-08) dated June 4, 2008 “Banking facilities to the
visually challenged” has following para which is part of almost all legal
directives by RBI master circular of July 2014, Indian Bank Association and
Banking Codes and Standards Board of India (BCSBI).  It is copied by all.


“Banks should therefore ensure that all the banking facilities such as
cheque book facility including third party cheques, ATM facility, Net
banking facility, locker facility, retail loans, credit cards etc., are
invariably offered to the visually challenged without any discrimination.”



On page 43 of BCSBI Code dated January 2014 has mentioned:

x. We will ensure that all the banking facilities such as cheque book
facility, ATM facility, Net banking facility, locker facility, retail
loans, credit cards etc., are invariably offered to the visually challenged
without any discrimination.

xi. We will render all possible assistance to the visually challenged for
availing various banking facilities



IBA procedural guidelines of November 2008 says:

All banking products offered by the bank should be made available to
visually impaired persons.



RBI Master Circular on Customer Service in Banks dated July 1, 2014 reads:

10.3 Providing banking facilities to Visually Impaired Persons

In order to facilitate access to banking facilities by visually challenged
persons, banks are advised to offer banking facilities including cheque
book facility / operation of ATM / locker, etc., to the visually challenged
as they are legally competent to contract.

In the Case No. 2791/2003, the Honourable Court of Chief Commissioner for
Persons with Disabilities had passed Orders dated September 5, 2005 which
was forwarded by IBA to all the member banks vide their circular letter
dated October 20, 2005. In the above Order, the Honorable Court has
instructed that banks should offer all the banking facilities including
cheque book facility, ATM facility and locker facility to the visually
challenged and also assist them in withdrawal of cash.

Further, in Paragraph 14 of the above Order, the Honorable Court has
observed that visually impaired persons cannot be denied the facility of
cheque book, locker and ATM on the possibility of risk in operating / using
the said facility, as the element of risk is involved in case of other
customers as well.

Banks should therefore ensure that all the banking facilities such as
cheque book facility including third party cheques, ATM facility, Net
banking facility, locker facility, retail loans, credit cards etc., are
invariably offered to the visually challenged without any discrimination. Banks
may also advise their branches to render all possible assistance to the
visually challenged for availing the various banking facilities.



No way any bank can deny current account opening as all banking regulators
have clearly given directive as "all banking facilities:.


It is high time RBI and IBA should come out with revised directive by
removing ambiguities.

Prashant Naik
