Dear list
As we commemorate the 10th anniversary of the Talking ATM India ( https://talkingatmindia.org) web locator service, heartfelt appreciation to XRCVC and Sai Bhagat for their unwavering support and significant contributions. The recent recognition of the Talking ATM India site in the 'Digital portal for PwDs developed by DEPwD' highlights the impactful reach of this service. The website's comprehensive financial information, including banking services for customers with disabilities, insurance, and investment guidelines, has made it a go-to resource. Sai Bhagat's singular dedication in designing and developing the website, incorporating unique features such as geo-based smart search and screen reader compliance, has been instrumental in its success. XRCVC's 20-year commitment to financial access and pioneering efforts in prototype development with ATM vendors have been transformative. Their advocacy has led to key policy changes and directives, promoting financial inclusion for all. Here's to another decade of progress, inclusion, and empowerment.
