Dinesh, This is all the same done most of the time, and I must confess that I sometimes simply do not have the energy to protest. My observation has been that people with some amount of education do not usually lead you by holding the cane, but people with relatively little education do that more often. This may differ with others, but in my case, colleagues who lead me to the bus have never held my cane; on the other hand, when any of the bus drivers do so, they invariably take one end of my cane.
