Such reactions from people in society only show us we have miles to go as
regards disability awareness, rights-based disability awareness, awareness
about inclusion and consequently mindset change in a society which is still
under the grip of traditional thought process of viewing Disability as
Charity-based and more importantly as emanating from "Paap
-Punya".
Miles to go before we sleep.

Sad reality out of an age-old-perception is, our society is built on
traditional thought to see disability ONLY charity-based. Therefore Young,
educated,highly qualified people with disability with disability and people
who work in this sector should NOT get demoralised or upset by these
incidents. They only show us how still there is lack of awareness about
Rights-based disability,around us. So this is challenge for us. So take out
2-3 minutes and without getting angry,annoyed explain to these people that
persons with disability like "me",like "my student" dont need charity,
pity. They are first persons like you and me Sir. Only difference is they
have a disability like vision deficiency. With education and
qualifications  they are equally,some times more competent and qualified.
Technology and education have empowered them.As per the Constitution of
India which governs all of us, Sir these PswD have equal rights to FULLY
participate in the day-today development process in the society ON PAR WITH
OTHERS...And as per law if they cant get this participation anywhere in
public spaces due to barriers, it is OUR DUTY Sir to work/raise voice as an
inclusive society to remove these barriers so that their participation is
Full and on par with others.
So Sir, this young man in front of you does not need free ice cream from
you, he wants a hand of empathy from you.
So Sir, this young student in front of you does not need free tuition from
you for you to achieve Punya, he and all other persons with disability want

Re: [AI] Should we offer money as a tip to airlines staff or not?

2024-03-17 Thread Prakash Kamat
Another aspect is there. As rightly said above it is an individual choice.
But sometime some staff gets so accustomed to tips that they start making
demands. Some persons who cant afford have to face bad reactions, nasty
remarks,comments.
So this aspect that it is not mandatory ,customary to give tips needs to be
repeatedly stated somewhere for such staff to know it and not fall into a
habit to pressurise people to give tips.

Yes many people don't like word Divyang.bcoz they call you Divyang but do
they treat you like persons having body and Soul of God? Only putting on
high pedestal is of no use.
Having said that, you have no choice on the word Divyang as The RPwD Act
,2016 has officially adopted word Divyang. Hindi Act and other Acts in some
Regional languages have adopted that word. So govt schemes, govt
departments use that word. So you have no option. If you say I dont like
that word govt will say dont apply for schemes.
And if you look from other way, instead of what they use 'handicapped",
etc. Divyang I feel is much better...

I think, institutions are not demanding UDID card only system to avail
concession tickets. However, those who have got the UDID card, should
be given the facility to use the same and also to use the same to book
online tickets.
Those who do not have UDID card, will keep on using the old system
thhere should be no problem in it. Presently also, there are two
different documents to avail tickets: one, railway concession forms
duely completed, and two, Online booking rail cards which are being in
online as well as ofline mode.

[AI] Problem with motorola G82 handset

2023-02-22 Thread Ved Prakash Sharma
I am facing a peaculiar issue in my Motorola G82 handset with Android 12.
Firstly, talkback keeps on either telling time or volume level every
now and then. Secondly, it announces these things in the highest
volume no matter what is my accessibility volume level.
Thirdly, If I am playing some media, talkback volume gets very low
even if I have checked the option which says audio ducking. Fourthly,
When I receive a call, talkback volume gets near zero and I cannot get
the options if a waiting call is coming. Fifthly, autospeaker is not
working in my handset.
Please give some solutions.
Please also tell customer care number of motorola so that I may
contact them. The numbers that I got through google search, says, this
number does not exist.
Thanks in advance.

1. Passing landmarks should be spoken, there should be a facility to
turn them on / off as per user's requirement.
2. Downloading offline maps is not accessible at all, This used to be
a boon during the good old nokia days when we used to put entire maps
collection on our SD cards.

Same goes for in case of cab and other services where google maps APIs

on. Most app designer do not perhaps know about accessibility or they do not
simply care. I might have begun sounding a little negative, but the way

Not sure about Paytm improving exactly.
After the TalkBack 5 update, the Paytm homepage accessibility for the top
row button had become disfunctional. Many TalkBack users tried to take it up
with Paytm without success, and even Victor Tsran from the Google
Accessibility team contacted them but there was no change whatsoever. Even
now, the buttons, pay, cashback, add money, passbook, they don't work on the
home page. Whatever button you tap, all the buttons are read together by
TalkBack. And it is the passbook that would open wherever you tap on that
row.
These buttons are working properly on the bank page though.
Will if things get better there, it is a highly used app...

people who wish to find balance and peace in their lives. However, unlike
other motivational and self-help books which tend to make use of
philosophies to put forth their point; this book is a narration of a
lawyer's personal life, his lifestyle that took him to the brink and his
self-realization amid the mountains of Himalayas. It has had a positive
influence on millions of people worldwide

gives an explanation of the later literary landscape of the post-shadowy

Blindness: Is Literature Against Us?
An Address Delivered by Kenneth Jernigan
   President, National   Federation of the Blind
   At the Banquet of the Annual Convention
   Chicago,   July 3, 1974
History, we are told, is the record of what human beings have done;
literature, the record of what they have thought. Last year I examined
  with you the place of the blind in history—not just what we have
done but what   the historians have remembered and said we have done.
The two, as we found, are   vastly different.
This year I would like to talk with you about the place of the blind
in   literature. How have we been perceived? What has been our role?
How have the   poets and novelists, the essayists and dramatists seen
us? Have they "told it   like it is," or merely liked it as they've
told it?
With history there is at least a supposed foundation of fact. Whatever
the   twisting or omission or misinterpretation or downright
falsehood, that   foundation presumably remains—a tether and a
touchstone, always subject to   reexamination and new proof. Not so
with literature. The author is free to cut   through facts to the
essence, to dream and soar and surmise. Going deeper than   history,
the myths and feelings of a people are enshrined in its literature.
Literary culture in all its forms constitutes possibly the main
transmission   belt of our society's beliefs and values—more important
even than the schools,   the churches, the news media, or the family.
How, then, have we fared in   literature?
The literary record reveals no single theme or unitary view of the
life of   the blind. Instead, it displays a bewildering variety of
images—often   conflicting and contradictory, not only as between
different ages or cultures,   or among the works of various writers,
but even within the pages of a single   book.
Yet, upon closer examination the principal themes and motifs of
literature   and popular culture are nine in number and may be
summarized as follows: blindness as compensatory or miraculous power,
blindness as total tragedy;   blindness as foolishness and
helplessness; blindness as unrelieved wickedness   and evil; blindness
as perfect virtue; blindness as punishment for sin;   blindness as
abnormality or dehumanization; blindness as purification; and
blindness as symbol or parable.
Let us begin with blindness and compensatory powers. Suppose one of
you   should ask me whether I think there is any advantage in being
blind; and suppose   I should answer like this: "Not an advantage
perhaps: still it has compensations   that one might not think of. A
new world to explore, new experiences, new powers   awakening; strange
new perceptions; life in the fourth dimension."l How would   you react
to that? You would, I suspect, laugh me out of the room. I doubt that
 a single person here would buy such stereotyped stupidity. You and I
know from   firsthand experience that there is no "fourth dimension"
to blindness—no   miraculous new powers awakening, no strange new
perceptions, no brave new worlds   to explore. Yet, the words I have
quoted are those of a blind character in a   popular novel of some
time back. (I don't know whether the term has   significance, but a
blind "private eye," no less.)
The association of blindness with compensatory powers, illustrated by
the   blind detective I have just mentioned, represents a venerable
tradition,   reaching back to classical mythology. A favorite method
of punishment among the   gods of ancient Greece was blinding—regarded
apparently as a fate worse than   death—following which, more often
than not, the gods so pitied the blinded   victim that they relented
and conferred upon him extraordinary gifts, usually   the power of
prophecy or some other exceptional skill. Thus, Homer was widely
regarded as having been compensated by the gift of poetry. In the same
way   Tiresias, who wandered through the plays of Sophocles, received
for his   blindness the gift of prophecy.
The theme of divine compensation following divine retribution survived
the   passage of the ages and the decline of the pagan religions. Sir

My notes from the seminar: “challenges in the implementation of the
RPD Act” 2016 organised by the office of Chief Commissioner of Persons
with Disabilities
Date: 16th March 2017
Venue: Bharatiya Pravasi Kendra Chanakyapuri
Inaugural session

Speaker: SK Prasad gave an overview of the seminar.
Speaker: Joint Sec and chairperson of National Trust Mr Mukesh Jain
Mr Jain:  “though the audience is not very big, but the all sitting
here have the capacity to change the sector manifold”.
Mr Jain: disability does not reside within individuals but it exists
in the society.
Mr Jain: there are 3 kind of challenges to implement the RPWD Act.  1.
Substantive challenges: how to make intervention at the ground level.
Healthcare, education and employment fall under substantive
challenges.
Mr Jain: disability policy should not be the afterthought, it should
be built in all the policies.
Challenge II: structural challenges
Mr Jain: how to make all people with disabilities aware about the
provisions under the RPWD Act. If we are able to achieve this,
majority of our challenges will go away.
Mr Jain: 2.68 crores people with disabilities are not sitting only in
Delhi and Mumbai, they  are their in the villages and making them
aware about their rights should be the key.
Mr Jain: if we are to bring accessibility, we will have to train,
municipal workers, and the other stakeholders such as SP, DSP and the
Majistrates.
Mr Jain: removal of prejudice against PWDS. Publick employers should
be made aware of the skills of PWDS.
Mr Jain: procedural challenge: all state CCPD offices should become
the centre for the monitoring and coordinating of the schemes.

Speaker: KK Pandey (CCPD)
Mr Pandey: though the numbers comprising of state commissioners, NGO
representatives government officials and the researchers are less but
we should not forget you are the seed which will germinate and bring
out the necessary change required in the country.
Mr Pandey: In Maharashtra, Gulab Ray Maharaj was the one blind
‘divyang’ who wrote 150 books thousand years ago.
Mr Pandey: ‘Divyang’s have always contributed for the nation. They are
not burdens what they need an opportunity. Of late science has won
over disability. Anyone can become ‘divyang’ so we all should be aware
about its challenges.
Mr Pandey: In the last 2 and a half years, the government of India has
organized more than 4 thousand equipment distribution camps and moore
than 6 lakhs ‘divyang’ have got benefited. The government had to incur
around Rs 4 crore for this initiative.
Mr Pandey: We are now moving from the charity approach to the rights approach.
Mr Pandey: the government wants to implement the RPWD Act on the
Ambedkar Jayanti on 14th April 2017. Remember the PWDA 1995 took 3
years to see its rules notified. You can thus see the commitment of
the Modi Government.
Mr Pandey: There is no fixed format in the disability sector. Its
evolving and we have to remain vigilance. Its not a sector where trade
union operates. We have to find solution with consensus in the sector.
Mr Pandey: There is need to give opportunity to all ‘divyangjan’ of
the country. I end here Thank you.

Speaker: N S kang Secretary DEPWD
Mr Kang: The government and the civil society need to work in tendom
to see that the law is implemented effectively.
Mr Kang: on the 10th of March we put the draft of the rules on our
website, please send suggestions. Send us your objections soon so that
we could publish the rules on 14th on April on the occasion of
Ambedkar Jayanti.
Mr Kang: the larger challenge is to how we make disabled people aware
about their entitlements envisaged under the legislation.
Mr Kang: in the last 2 years, we have sceen great change in the
attitude of peoplw towards PWDs which is encouraging. We should carry
on the momentum. We are determined to ensure equal status for the
people with disabilities.
Avinash: We break for tea now. We are heading towards the lift which
is Braille-embedded. The people have now started networking. Some NGO
representatives are looking desperate to meet government officials.
They have to show their credentials. My friend Yogesh and Me both
totally blind have found a table and one of the CCPD Office officials
has instructed her colleagues to take care of our tea and snacks
requirements. On my table, I happen to meet one woman who has a son
who has multiple disabilities. She sstrikes a conversation: ‘Hi’, I
responded Hellow! We discussed inclusive schooling and debated the
prose and cons. Then we are meeting the State CCPD of Nagaland, who
informes us that as per 2011 Census, in Nagaland there are only 29
thousand six hundred children have disabilities. He lamented that his
office is clubbed with the social welfare department, and fund
scarcity is the huge problem. We are done with tea.

Very nicely explained. Thanks for sharing.

Excellent piece Martand, congratulations. The violence against
disabled is all pervasive but hardly deliberated upon. Your write up
is very insightful.
http://www.thehindu.com/opinion/columns/Disability-and-the-culture-of-violence/article17205302.ece
Disability has been one the end results of violence historically.
Since ancient times, numerous wars have been fought and entire
civilisations have been destroyed. The end results of every war has
been seen in binaries like ‘victory’ and ‘loss’, ‘life’ and ‘death’,
‘pride’ and ‘humiliation’. But, one binary which generally escapes
attention of war historians is ‘able-bodiness’ and ‘disability’.


e.


Process of ‘othering’

It differs from society to society because of different levels of
stigmatisation of disabled people in different societies. Some do the
‘othering’ of disabled population from the mainstream, leading to
their double exploitation, firstly due to their limited physical
potential and secondly the societal discrimination that arises after
becoming physically disabled. This violence is highly structural in
nature.

This structural violence becomes more widespread where a large
disabled population lives. This structural violence has two types, one
where a large disabled population exists due to some war or natural
disaster, the other case being where no ‘war’ has been fought but many
people by birth are disabled. Take the example of any country torn by
war, such as Syria. The civil war has left nearly a million people
with permanent disabilities. The level of violence in Syria today is
unparalleled. The potential of the entire society and country has been
reduced to its lowest. The word ‘violence’ here does not just refer to
the continuous bombings and firings during the war, but also when guns
are not firing, violence still exists.

The other example can be taken where a large disabled population lives
in a war-free or conflict-free zone. For example, India has 26.8
million disabled people as per the 2011 Census. Here the disabled
population is one of the most marginalised sections of the country and
also one of the largest minority groups, though disability is yet to
be formally recognised as a ‘minority group’ in the country. In India,
one can see that the gap between the realised potential of a person
with disabilities and that of an able-bodied person is huge.
Discrimination in itself is a kind of violence; one would find that in
plenty in India where representation of disabled people in all sectors
of the economy is extremely low. In most cases, employers deny a job
to a disabled person by uttering their usual catchphrase, “not found
suitable for work”.

This leads to a high rate of unemployment among the disabled, and most
of their expectations to live a decent life are left unsatisfied,
leading to non-realisation of potential within. This is the result of
‘structural violence’ of society towards the disabled, where violence
is not seen on the face of it like ‘personal violence’ does. It
creates an environment of ‘negative peace’ within a society.


A separate peace

Negative peace refers to the absence of violence. When, for example, a
ceasefire is enacted, a negative peace will ensue. It is negative
because something undesirable stopped happening (e.g. the violence
stopped, the oppression ended). Whereas positive peace is filled with
positive content such as restoration of relationships, the creation of
social systems that serve the needs of the whole population and the
constructive resolution of conflict.

In the context of disability, one can safely conclude that societies
which have more disabled people have more ‘negative peace’ than those
which have fewer disabled people. This is because the stigma attached
with disability leads to the marginalisation of disabled people as a
result of structural violence. The reverse is also true that violent
societies have more disabled people than peaceful societies.
Disability and attitudes towards the disabled are markers of the level
of violence within societies.

Throughout history, physical punishment has been inflicted upon people
by making them disabled by cutting off the limbs, tearing out the
eyes, cutting their tongue, etc. Secondly, those who were already
disabled by birth have been seen as those who had committed some grave
sin in their previous birth so as to be born disabled in this birth.
This logic of previous birth sin leads to the legitimisation of
discrimination and hatred towards persons with disabilities across
cultures. Hence, a ‘culture of violence’ is born and is legitimised
further.

In every sphere, a disabled person’s life is pervaded with violence in
some form or the other, the magnitude of this violence might differ,
but its existence can’t be denied.

Vandana Mandi, Deepika Kumari, Anu Kumari and 12 more girls were
interacting confidently with the customers over the phone explaining
them about various schemes provided by a telecom company. What made
them different is their sheer determination to create identity for
themselves in society, beating all odds these visually impaired girls
are receiving training as the call centre operators and will soon work
for a renowned telecom company.
http://www.dailypioneer.com/state-editions/ranchi/divyang-girls-get-drishti-to-brighten-their-lives.html
With a firm voice and to lead a dignified life, Vandana Mandi (30),
said, “This initiative has changed our life and has given us a
direction. As visually impaired persons, we need someone who can take
care of us. Moreover, from now onwards I can contribute to my family
income. The service started by Vodafone has changed our life and have
encouraged us in several ways. Now I can proudly say that I am
independent.”

Similarly, with the same confidence and smile, another trainee, Anu
Kumari (23), added, “I love this job. We get to interact with several
people. At present, I am completing my graduation and will continue in
the BPO sector, if got an opportunity. Through constant guidance, I am
improving has a telecom operator.”

With the aim to bring ‘Divyang’ girls in the mainstream, Vodafone
India Limited has partnered with the Braj Kishore Netraheen Balika
Vidyalaya to develop a project titled ‘Drishti’ to provide opportunity
to the visually impaired girls and make them self dependent.

Under this ambitious project, the telecom company has set up a
Tele-calling centre on the school premises, wherein members of the
school have been trained by Vodafone on voice recognition system to
connect with potential pre-paid customers.

“This particular venture is special as the company is targeting
visually impaired girls and helping them to upgrade their quality of
life through imparting special skills that will enable them to earn a
living and be self –dependent. The organisation believe these girls
are equally capable and dedicated as anyone else in taking up
professional challenges,” said, Business Head, Bihar and Jharkhand,
Vodafone India, Rajshekhar Metgud while inaugurating the call centre.

The concept to start the service came after I first visited the
Technical Training Institute at Pune, where the company was running a
call centre for differently abled people, added, Co-Founder of Braj
Kishore Netraheen Balika Vidyalaya, Neelu Verma.

“Girls here come from primitive places. After a rigorous training for
one year, few girls were sent to Pune and they received very good
remark from trainers. Keeping this in mind and with the support of
Telecom Company, the school is working towards socio economic
rehabilitation of visually impaired. For the convenience of the Tele
calling team, the call centre is set up here on campus premises,” said
Verma.

One more good thing, this government is responding to judicial
decissions and doing the needful unlike in the past where courts gave
decissions but governments kept on contesting and worse not
implimenting them all together for years such as provision of online
ticket booking for blind with conssession. It took many years to start
even the basic procedure when Courts ordered its implimentation within
6 months I think.

So let's work towards getting these things implimented whoever takes

Rlys: Disabled can now travel alone on concessional ticket
TNN | Jun 10, 2016, 08.01 AM IST
BHOPAL: Now orthopaedically handicapped, paraplegic and specially abled
passengers will be able to go for rail travel alone, without an
attendant.

They will also be given tickets on concessional rates which are currently
provided only when they have an attendant with them. A notification was
issued
in this regard by the railway board on Wednesday following an order of
the
high court of Madras.

Martino: Messi able to play in four daysGOAL
Rooney: I will never play for another Premier League clubGOAL
list end
Recommended By Colombia
In one of its orders, the court said, "The disabled persons who are not
accompanied by any attendant should not be denied concession." The orders
will
be implemented from June 15 throughout the country, said a senior
official
from Bhopal division.

Currently, as per IRCA coaching tariff No. 26 part I (Volume II) 25 and
29,
concession in passenger fare is permissible for orthopaedically
handicapped,
paraplegic and specially abled who cannot travel without an attendant.
They
are given 75 per cent concession in tickets for second class, sleeper,
first
class, AC and chair car, while the concession is 50 per cent in AC 2 tier
and AC first class on producing adequate certificates. 50 per cent
concession
is inj the form of seasonal discount on ticket for them.

Adding to the facilities in railways for disabled passengers, tickets
issued
through computerised passenger reservation system, one lower berth should
be allotted to the handicapped person and the person accompanying him/her
person should be allotted middle or upper berths, nearby, as available.

After departure of the train, if there are vacant lower berths available
in
the train, and if any physically handicapped person has booked ticket
under
handicapped concessional ticket system, he/she should be allotted the
lower
birth as per the requirement.

Re: [AI] Medical certificate to certify inability to write owing to disability?

2016-06-11 Thread Surya Prakash

Hello Amar!
Thanks for raising the important issue. Not only persons with low vision 
but legally blind persons having slight vision have to face problems in 
absence of such detailed disability certificates.

On June 10, 2016 3:46:31 PM Amar Jain  wrote:


Guys,

This requirement is necessitated in few cases such as that of low
vision, or those who are disabled claiming services of scribe but the
disability does not affect their writing speed.

Given that the PWD Rules have no such mandate to issue any certificate
stating inability to write, this is strictly a procedural requirement.

I do not recall, but few years back, there was a well drafted format
of certificate which was asked by some authorities in which everything
was captured, starting with writing, mobility, usage of computer, etc.
And it appears that the same condition has been borrowed since then by
other entities.

While totally blind may be able to seek exemption from production of
such certificate, but for low vision and other candidates, it is sure
shot a problem.

Re: [AI] Now concession to orthopedically disabled without escort also

2016-06-11 Thread Surya Prakash

Hi,
What about the legally blind persons with slight vision? They are still 
left out. I'm not talking about persons with low vision. However, I am not 
opposing  their due.
Secondly, I would like to know about the disability percentage required to 
get concessional ticket for the orthopedically disabled.

Agree Rajesh.

However, better late than never.

One more good thing, this government is responding to judicial
decissions and doing the needful unlike in the past where courts gave
decissions but governments kept on contesting and worse not
implimenting them all together for years such as provision of online
ticket booking for blind with conssession. It took many years to start
even the basic procedure when Courts ordered its implimentation within
6 months I think.

So let's work towards getting these things implimented whoever takes
the initiative.

Thanks and warm regards,

Rahul.

Don't know why it had to be judiciary doing it.
Hope now at least, TCs would stop harassing us blind passengers about
without escort tickets.
The hearing impaired are still given only 50% concession.

Subject: [AI] Now concession to orthopedically disabled without escort also

Rlys: Disabled can now travel alone on concessional ticket
TNN | Jun 10, 2016, 08.01 AM IST
BHOPAL: Now orthopaedically handicapped, paraplegic and specially abled
passengers will be able to go for rail travel alone, without an attendant.

They will also be given tickets on concessional rates which are currently
provided only when they have an attendant with them. A notification was
issued
in this regard by the railway board on Wednesday following an order of the
high court of Madras.
list of 2 items
Martino: Messi able to play in four daysGOAL
Rooney: I will never play for another Premier League clubGOAL
list end
Recommended By Colombia
In one of its orders, the court said, "The disabled persons who are not
accompanied by any attendant should not be denied concession." The orders
will
be implemented from June 15 throughout the country, said a senior official
from Bhopal division.

Currently, as per IRCA coaching tariff No. 26 part I (Volume II) 25 and 29,
concession in passenger fare is permissible for orthopaedically
handicapped,
paraplegic and specially abled who cannot travel without an attendant. They
are given 75 per cent concession in tickets for second class, sleeper,
first
class, AC and chair car, while the concession is 50 per cent in AC 2 tier
and AC first class on producing adequate certificates. 50 per cent
concession
is inj the form of seasonal discount on ticket for them.

Adding to the facilities in railways for disabled passengers, tickets issued
through computerised passenger reservation system, one lower berth should
be allotted to the handicapped person and the person accompanying him/her
person should be allotted middle or upper berths, nearby, as available.

After departure of the train, if there are vacant lower berths available in
the train, and if any physically handicapped person has booked ticket under
handicapped concessional ticket system, he/she should be allotted the lower
birth as per the requirement.

[AI] Query regarding railway smart card.

2016-06-01 Thread Surya Prakash

Hello
Has anyone from the list received his/her railway ID card? If yes, what is 
the expiry date of the card? Actually, a friend of mine has just received 
his card which is valid up to November 2017.
Is it not a joke? The concession certificate which we are using till now is 
valid for 5 years from the date of issuance. Anyone eligible for the 
concession can get the certificate within no time. But the smart card which 
is being issued in 3 to 6 months is valid for 1 or two years.

Hello,
I don't read Daisy books on PC. so no idea about that. as far as
Android platform is concerned, there are many options like Voice dream
Reader, Easy Daisy Reader and Go read by Bookshare. the first one is
paid, go read is not updated and as I mentioned in my earlier mail
"Easy Daisy Reader' is the youngest and promising candidate.you should
give it a try.

Hi,

Probably, the cell is formatted to display 1 decimal place. You may
check the format in the Format Cells dialog box under the Number tab.
If the Category list box shows 'Number' and Decimal Places edit combo
box displays 1 then you may want to change this to either of the
following:

1. Increase the number of decimal places in the respective edit combo box.
2. Switch to General' format by selecting the same in Category list box.

generally, when you purchase any app and try to install it on the

desired choice and your prefered tts reads to you. It does remember
the last  reading speed of your document, position where you closed
the file so if you open the same file again, you are at the same
position to continue further.

If you are working on larger  documents and tired of reading and if
you would like to relax for sometime, it also gives you the option to
toggle on play/pause. If you require to read the whole document
continuously, you just have to tap on read all button and this app
reads to you the entire document at one go!

Another best option I really enjoyed is that in whichever navigation
you are working with say for instance, word, paragraph etc and if you
missed out to listen, you can tap on repeat button and this app can
repeat  that same occurance  again.

To start using with this app, initially you have to choose between
the engine installed on your mobile. If you have to read the document
in Hindi, you have to select Google TTS or Vocaliser Lekha if
installed. Just make sure that the tts with which you intend to read
the file is different from the default TTS of your phone as you can
not use the default engine to read the files. So once you make the
selection of your prefered engine, you have to choose the voices i.e.
languages like Hindi, English etc depending on the file you want to
read. You need not make this selection everytime when you open this
app as these settings are saved permanently unless you require to
change the same.

Another advantage of this app is especially for beginners who are
finding difficulties reading the documents faster. So you need not go
to the tts settings all the way  to make it slower. You can reduce the
speed of your reading as per your convenience tapping on slower/faster
on the app screen itself. While reading your document, if you wish to
jump quickly on any desired page number at any time, you have to
simply tap on go to page number button and your phone keyboard pops up
at the bottom to enter the page number.

This app also let you see the status of your file informing you the
percentage of file you have red, current  page number etc.

Currently, this app does not  supports pdf file so hoping to have this
format added by them in the future.

So if you are interested to try this app, you can use the following
link to download it’s demo version. The app would work for two minutes
after which it would close. Then you would have to open it again.
The 2 minute restriction would be removed once the application is
activated.

This app is ideally suited for the students, working employees and
each one of us who love to read the documents. I have liked it’s
features very much and purchased the licence for myself. Currently
this app has  not been launched on playstore so you have to contact
it’s developers Sparsh Products personally. Now the download link:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B89WIL0ghBVhTXBPNnFlQXZkcDg/view?usp=sharing

so great initiative by Mr.  Abhinav from sparsh Products to make the
indian languages more accessible on our phone!

Thanks,

hi,
we can use the play store apps on more than one phone using the same email 
ID. but perhaps this app will not work on more than one phone because the 
activation code will not  work on the second phone.

generally, when you purchase any app and try to install it on the

to forgo with your licence apps.

so hoping to have best advantage of this feature.

hello,
Recently, Sparsh Product Dehradun has launched most awaited and highly
useful  app called ‘Accessible Reader’ providing the navigational
support to read the files of various formats like txt, doc, docs, rtf
etc.

I have used this app successfully  on my mobile Moto X 2nd generation
running the android version  6  marshmello. The best advantage of this
app is that you need not to purchase the separate tts to make use of
this software unlike Voice Dream Reader which require you to purchase
the separate tts to read the files like doc docs etc. Also so far  we
do not have any app to read our files in Indian  languages like Hindi,
Marathi etc.

This app is completely free of any adds even running in demo or full
version.

Once you open the app, you have the several options presented like
open the file to browse the files located on your mobile using your
integrated file manager, open the last file without repeating the
browse file option as it remembers the file history you have worked
earlier. Multiple  Reading options for instance, read by word,
sentence, paragraph, page and so on. You need to simply tap on your
desired choice and your prefered tts reads to you. It does remember
the last  reading speed of your document, position where you closed
the file so if you open the same file again, you are at the same
position to continue further.

If you are working on larger  documents and tired of reading and if
you would like to relax for sometime, it also gives you the option to
toggle on play/pause. If you require to read the whole document
continuously, you just have to tap on read all button and this app
reads to you the entire document at one go!

Another best option I really enjoyed is that in whichever navigation
you are working with say for instance, word, paragraph etc and if you
missed out to listen, you can tap on repeat button and this app can
repeat  that same occurance  again.

To start using with this app, initially you have to choose between
the engine installed on your mobile. If you have to read the document
in Hindi, you have to select Google TTS or Vocaliser Lekha if
installed. Just make sure that the tts with which you intend to read
the file is different from the default TTS of your phone as you can
not use the default engine to read the files. So once you make the
selection of your prefered engine, you have to choose the voices i.e.
languages

Class forth children writing blind candidates exams? please stop

http://indianexpress.com/article/cities/pune/visually-impaired-protest-against-govt-disregarding-gr-on-writers/



In the wake of the Maharashtra government contemplating allowing adult
writers for differently abled children as well as setting up a
writers’ bureau for qualified writers, a group of activists working
for the visually impaired are peeved that the government is not
following the resolution for “writers” for adults appearing for state
government jobs.

The government resolution (GR) issued on March 28 last year states
that “writers” for those appearing for state government jobs should be
introduced to the candidate a day before and the candidate has to
agree to said writer, however, the state government has not been
following the GR.

This was pointed out by a group of activists working for the visually
impaired in the city Sunday, when 19 visually impaired candidates who
appeared for an examination for the post of peon in the Pune Zilla
Parishad were provided writers from the fourth class from the local
residential school for tribal children. “Even though there is a GR
mentioning all the rules, one of which is that the candidate should be
introduced to the writer a day earlier, it is only on paper. There is
a clear violation to the disadvantage of the candidate,” said activist
Ramchandra Rangolle, who’s two friends appeared for the exam.

He said while the Persons with Disabilities Act 1995 mentions a three
per cent recruitment in state and central government offices, acts
such as these only hamper the efforts. The candidates who appeared for
the Sunday exam said the writers were unable to help them out and many
of them could not even write properly.

“The writer has to be chosen to suit to the exam. They cannot give us
small kids to help us,” said a candidate under condition of anonymity.
The Zilla Parishad official however said that it was practically
impossible to have the candidates introduced a day in advance as they
were busy arranging exams for vacancies for various posts. “We knew
the requirement and we provided for it at the time of examination. For
the Sunday exam, the minimum qualification was class four and so we
have students from class four to help the candidates,” explained the
official.

There were over 16,000 candidates appearing for 40 posts at the Zilla
Parishad Sunday. There were 35 centres in the city for the exam.
Recently, due to the hue and cry over “writers” for the differently
abled, the government was contemplating adult writers as there are a
lot of issues faced by the visually impaired. Rangolle points out that
for state government exams, they cannot give school children as
writers even if the minimum pass requirement is class four. “My friend
could hardly explain to the writer and they could not understand and
write well,” he says.

While a writers’ bureau too has been recommended, the government is
also contemplating prompters for practical exams for schools. “While
government is focusing on school exams, the same needs to be done for
state government exams,” said a candidate. The amended act issued last
year clearly mentions the rules for writers for such examinations.
Activists feel that if the government is providing writers for such
examinations, which means the local bodies, they should give adults
for these and not children.

Of the 40 posts for peons, activists are hoping that they should get
some of the candidates selected for the posts but with such “writers”
they feel they stand less hope as they are not sure the writers were
able to mark the answers correctly. Even though the exam had objective
questions with four options, it is doubtful whether they were able to
do the needful, they said.

What the rules say:

* The local body or the candidate can get the writer of his/her choice

* The candidate has to make a mention whether he/she needs a writer

* State government should select the writer according to the needs of
the exam according to the panel decided

* The panel should decide the writers according to the area or field

* The candidate should be able to meet the writer one day in advance to discuss

Re: [AI] A bad Incidence In Indian Railways

2015-10-05 Thread Surya Prakash Sharma
Hi,
i've a suggestion in this regard to avoid direct confrontation with
the non-disabled passengers boarding in the coatch reserved for PWDs.
we should request the railways that in such cases when the railway
police acting on such complaints must not reveal that there was a
complaint from the coatch. they should pretend as if they were acting
suo moto.
