I certainly do not deny the points you have mentioned. But watching this issue repeat itself again and again, I get this funny feeling that making branch managers understand our equal status and rights would be as difficult as waking up someone who is pretending to be sleeping. I feel the RBI must introduce serious awareness initiatives when they issue a rule and ensure banks are severely punished (irrespective of their reputation) for their failure to follow them. One of the problems in this country is tht we put out legislations without giving the authority to someone to punish people who faile to follow them.

Dear Subramani sir, I think there are 2 qualities visually challenged persons should possess in order to avail not only banking services, but also all other benefits which they are entitled to; 1. Clear Awareness about the law, along with the procedure to be followed in case of denial of any services/benefits. 2. Willingness and courage to fight. We should let the branch managers know what we are going to do if they deny us banking services. WE should tell them that we are going to take this to their higher officials and banking ombudsman. For example, though this is not relating to visual handicap, a customer came to my branch with a complaint about double debit of funds at the ATM which has to be addressed by the bank within a stipulated time period. But 9 out of 10 times, banks won't be able to do it within the time. This customer, after waiting till the expiry of the stipulated time, gave a letter to my branch manager which contained the rule relating to the same along with the penalty in case of failure, and marked a copy of the same to the concerned regional manager. Believe me, his complaint was given top priority and was resolved within no time.
