[AI] Archana Jyoti writes an Op-Ed in the Pioneer today: Empowering Divyangjan

[avinash shahi]

The Modi Government has taken many measures to assist the
differently-abled. Now it must adopt a robust legislation
http://www.dailypioneer.com/columnists/oped/empowering-divyangjan.html
Since the last two years, the Government is going full throttle in
distributing aids and assistive devices such as Braille kits, sewing
machines, hearing aids and smart canes to the differently-abled people
at various camps that are being organised on a mega scale from time to
time across the country. According to an estimate, over 1,800 such
camps have been held across the States since the Modi Government came
to power, with the recent one being in Varanasi in Uttar Pradesh, and
Navsari and Vadodara in Gujarat, where Prime Minister Narendra Modi
gave away the kits to the needy at free of cost.

The camps are being conducted by the Department of Empowerment of
Persons with Disabilities (Divyangjan), Union Ministry of Social
Justice and Empowerment, and organised by the Artificial Limbs
Manufacturing Corporation of India (ALIMCO). The number of camps is
far greater than the number in the case of previous Governments, Modi
said at Varanasi.

No doubt, such events provide visibility and transparency at a high
level. They also fetch political mileage to the ruling party. Also,
the term ‘Divyangjan', coined by the Prime Minister for the
differently-abled people, has sent a message among the beneficiaries
that their interests are being taken care at a higher level. Though
the word has drawn varied response, those in favour, like Delhi-based
Rajinder Johar, a quadriplegic who has been bed-ridden for the last 32
years, feel the word 'Divyanjan' gives the feeling of dignity and
respect.

Another positive step that needs to be mentioned is the coming up of
institutions like the Indian Sign Language Interpretation, and
transformation of the  Kerala-based National Institute of Speech and
Hearing (NISH) into the National University for Rehabilitation
Sciences and Disability Studies, for the benefit of the disabled. The
launch of a National Action Plan for Skill Training of Persons With
Disabilities, wherein  within next three years, five lakh people with
disability will be skill-trained, is a welcome gesture.

However, all such steps will be seen as half-hearted if they are not
backed by adequate legislation. After all, the sector does not need
any charity but wants its rights. Sadly, there is no movement on the
proposed Rights of Persons with Disabilities Bill, 2014, which seeks
to replace the Persons with Disabilities (Equal Opportunities,
Protection of Rights and Full Participation) Act, 1995.

The new Bill reflects the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with
Disabilities and has been hailed by the beneficiaries as well as
activists in the sector. However, attempts are being made to dilute
the Bill, which is under the consideration of a Group of Ministers
(GoM ) headed by Minister for Home Affairs Rajnath Singh. Other
members are Tribal Affairs Minister Jual Oram, Women and Child
Development Minister Maneka Gandhi and Social Justice and Empowerment
Minister Thawar Chand Gehlot.

While across the world, mental illness is considered as a disability,
the accepted term to describe the set of ailments is ‘psycho-social
disabilities'. The GoM has recommended that mental illness is a
disease and not a disability — and hence be dealt with by the Union
Ministry of Health.

This has hugely upset the activists in the sector, with some like Amba
Salelkar of Equals: Centre for Promotion of Social Justice, launching
a viral photo campaign called, ‘We Can Work', speaking loud that
mentally-ill people like schizophrenics too can be successfully
employed, if given chance.

The Government also seems to be reluctant to expand the reservation
percentage from the existing three per cent to five per cent. Its
contention is that there are not many qualified people in the sector
to take the job. However, what it is not realising is that such posts
would encourage more differently-abled to come forward to get trained
for it.

Johar, a recipient of the President's medal, and who, through his NGO,
Family of Disabled, has been providing employment to differently-abled
people, stresses not only on skill development but also measures to
open up job avenues for them. He suggests accessibility and
scholarship to begin with, to bring the beneficiaries out of the four
walls of their homes.

The implementation of the Bill, which also makes accessibility a
mandatory requirement under the law, is like a ray of hope for the
sector. This would only strengthen the Government's Accessibility
Campaign launched last year, aiming to make the society inclusive and
infrastructures friendly.

The Bill also addresses the issue of enhanced penalty for outraging
the modesty of a woman with disability and termination of pregnancy
after the consent of a guardian and medical practitioners. Making a
strong case for the Bill in its present format, well-known disabled
rights

Re: [AI] Tips for filling disability ID online form

Its a revolutionary step by the government, and it will replace all
other disability proofs plus will also serve as a national identity
proof like adhaar.
Moreover, it will help in curbing the corruption related to disability
benefits like scholarships.

Re: [AI] job

[Vamshi. G]

Hello Anees,


You would have seen the recent job notification by Barrier Break.  If
you are okay with relocating, that is a good opportunity.
Alternatively, you can look for jobs in the government sector as well.
There are lot of opportunities in banking sector.  Contact me if you
need any guidance in this regard.  But if you are particular about
corporate sector, then go ahead with your plans.

Subject: Re: [AI] Tips for filling disability ID online form

@danish Mahajan,

Thank you for your involvement in the discussion. Probably you have
cleared all my doubts. But surely, the idea of having only one card
like the Aadhar is the best option. Anyways, I will surely apply for
this UID card, though I already have quite many ID cards.
Once I get this UID, I hope it is fine if I discard the disability
certificate that I own right now, which was issued by DRC from
Meghalaya, as I belong to that state.
Please comment about discarding the certificate by DRC.

Hope this discussion about the very utility of this new card will
continue and will let the big shots of NGOs think. At the time of
making adhar your identification marks are also taken. The very same
document can have the disability mentioned also. When there is process
of raectification in adhar like address change then new adhars for
disabled may also be obtained with their certificates uploaded and
verified. Secondly, when railways is trying to make adhar compulsory
for e-ticketing then no extra card would be required. It would also
reduce the burden of issuing railway cards.

he

must travel by bus. here in chhattisgarh there is no state transport
corporation, in which a blind person can get concession. also the railway
ID
card is not a smart card, it is just a hard paper conventional card and
its
details are to be manually entered in PRS system by the chief booking
officer. there is no chip and magnetic strip on it. if government can
arrange a camp for voter IDs, why not for this disability card. as many
blind persons still could not get their aadhar due to denial of 
enrollment

centres, how is it possible to get this disability UID without aadhar.
first
he has to get aadhar.

people from rural area are coming in macro city or there near city for

since there is no electricity in some area, are we not using

Re: [AI] Tips for filling disability ID online form

[Lyngdoh]

@danish Mahajan,

Thank you for your involvement in the discussion. Probably you have
cleared all my doubts. But surely, the idea of having only one card
like the Aadhar is the best option. Anyways, I will surely apply for
this UID card, though I already have quite many ID cards.
Once I get this UID, I hope it is fine if I discard the disability
certificate that I own right now, which was issued by DRC from
Meghalaya, as I belong to that state.
Please comment about discarding the certificate by DRC.

[AI] Lucy Webster writes in the Guardian: I’m a person with disabilities. Why do I have to be a trailblazer too?

[avinash shahi]

Society still reacts with surprise and confusion at my presence in
many settings. It means I have to convince people I belong instead of
just getting on with life
https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2016/oct/26/person-disabilities-trailblazer-society-convince-life
 ‘It is possible to respect someone’s choices and bravery without
being patronising, and it is possible to recognise difference without
surprise, and yet many fail at these basic tasks of acceptance.’
Photograph: PD Amedzro/Al
I recently watched a powerful discussion of the importance of role
models, after the all-female production of The Tempest that’s
currently showing in London. During a Q, the cast, director and
producer talked passionately about the value of taking women-led
theatre into schools and prisons, showing young and disadvantaged
girls what is possible

If someone who looks like you, shares your background or understands
your experience has broken a path, it is going to be much easier for
you to follow. Whether that’s because other people will be more
amenable, or because of the psychological boost that comes from not
being the odd one out, it remains true that not being the first is of
infinite benefit.

But what happens when you have to be the first? I’ve occupied this
position for much of my life. Not only was I the first visibly
disabled person to go to any of the schools I attended, I am often the
first disabled person many people I encounter seem to have met or
spoken to. This status can announce itself subtly, but surely. I’ll
notice a sidelong look at my personal assistant, a pause in
conversation, while the person tries to work out if everything is “OK”
– by which they mean: normal. While this is my normal, it is, I
realised as I listened to the after-show discussion, quite an odd
situation to be in – and one that can sometimes leave me drained. I
feel compelled to be bubbly and, crucially, to crack a few jokes,
because that’s the easiest way to break through – to go from
“wheelchair user” to “person”

Being the first disabled person in a setting can lead to some strange
situations. A particular incident springs to mind. I was 11 years old
and my new school had taken my year on a “team building” day to an
adventure park. The aim of the day was to climb things and build
things and somehow make friends along the way. As I could neither
climb nor build, I was left to make suggestions from afar, feeling
incredibly awkward as the teachers encouraged the others to remember I
was there. It is safe to say I did not make any friends.

The issue was not that I was left out, far from it. Instead, by trying
to include me in things I could not do, the day served only to
highlight that I was different. I knew, and everyone else knew, that I
stuck out like a sore thumb – a feeling that followed me for the next
seven years of education. Every time I watched sports day from the
sidelines or had to be carried upstairs to my music lessons by the
school caretaker (it is unclear why no one thought to move the class),
they made the mistake of including to the point of exclusion. And I
was very aware that this all came down to the fact that no one really
knew what to do, because I was the first

I am reminded of those feelings every time someone briefly panics when
I start a conversation or is surprised that I am a writer (“Oh, good
for you,” they say, “well done”). I am reminded that I am still one of
the few when I manage to secure some work experience, only to be told
that the office isn’t accessible, sorry. And I am reminded of it when,
sometimes – with every phone call in advance to check access, every
explanation that, no, I can’t use the tube – going about daily life
feels like wading through treacle.

It needn’t be so. Society shouldn’t need you to follow a set path in
order to be able to accept what you’re doing without question or
confusion. We need to, collectively, make fewer assumptions, from the
seemingly innocuous (that I can only write about disability, that a
woman can’t be Prospero) to the more serious (that I can’t possibly
have a job, that a young person from an ethnic minority isn’t drama
school material). It is possible to respect someone’s choices and
bravery without being patronising, and it is possible to recognise
difference without surprise, and yet many fail at these basic tasks of
acceptance. Simple changes to these behaviours would make life a
little easier for those who take the risk of being their own role
model. If someone had thought about it, they might have realised that
the adventure day was going to result in some pretty awkward
situations and sent us to a museum instead.

In 2016, being the first to try should not mean expecting a rough ride
or being treated like a statistical anomaly. Up and down the country,
disabled people are spending their days convincing people that they
belong in a school, university or workplace, when really they should
just be making choices and getting on 

[AI] Punkhuri Kapoor reports from the Banaras Hindu University: Diwali 2016: Visually impaired spread light with Diwali candles

[avinash shahi]

VARANASI: For most people Diwali is all about lighting up our lives
with festivities and happiness. But for this group of visually
impaired students from Banaras Hindu University (BHU), it is an
occasion to spread light in the lives of other people with their
self-initiated project 'Divya Shakti'.
.
http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/varanasi/Visually-impaired-spread-light-with-Diwali-candles/articleshow/55087122.cms
.
 Working in an isolated, one-storeyed building in Bhadeini, this group
of 14 visually impaired an partially blind students make candles and
doormats with coconut fibre. The initiative is a brainchild of Abhay
Kumar Sharma, who is a third year student of BHU's faculty of social
sciences.
.

.
 "With this project, we intend to teach special skills to people wjo
are visually challenged and give them exposure so that they can earn a
living," Sharma told TOI.
.

.
 Moreover, these students learnt these special skills from another
visually impaired student, Ravi Kumar, who is also a second year
student of social sciences. Ravi himself learnt the craft, while
studying in a blind school in Durgakund area.
.
 Satya Prakash Malaviya, a BHU student and an active member of 'Divya
Shakti' said, "There is a misconception that visually impaired or
differently abled people cannot do anything. With our work, we wish to
tell people that there is nothing that we cannot do. We might not be
able to see but we can still spread the light."
.

.
 IMS students Kameshwar Mishra and Saurabh Verma, arrange for
financial assistance. It was Mishra's efforts that led to a
collaboration with international NGO, Help The Blind, after which two
of the group's students will receive scholarships this year.

.


.
 The students have prepared over two quintals of candles by working
for over 17 hours a day for two weeks. The candles are being sold at
BHU hostels and different locations in the neighbourhood.
