Hi all, Rajiv Rajan, activist has also been in a running battle with his bank for over a year now (he has no visual impairment - rather he has cerebral palsy and is wheelchair dependent)
No access but still has to be present to withdraw money No thumbprint verifications ATM card issue denied Constant insistence on Joint signatory, witness etc This thread was started just after yet another encounter with his bank. Disability Rights Alliance Tamil Nadu is pleased to present to India's PwD it's second focus blog...after railways,,,it's now banking resources. It has user experiences, RBI circulars, CCOD notification, Court orders, Pincha's citizen journalist video on his experience, guidelines etc. Hope this helps the larger pan-Indian cross-disability community!
