due to terminologies, we ourselves made us very complicated. previously blind persons have problem with the word "blind". later it was modified as visually handicapped, again it was modified as visually impaired and now visually challenged. now i am waiting for a new terminology for blind person. i don't have any hesitation, if i submit myself with the word "blind". same in hindi. i don't think that is their any problem to use the word netrahin or drishtihin.

thanks.

Excuse me mam! But I really unable to understand, what is rong in using the term "netraheen" or "drishti heen". It is understood by commun people also.
Otherwise, I heard a very nice term when I went to gujarat that is pragya
chakshu. But it is a very difficult to understand for commun man. I can
understand your emotions behind this mail, but I honestly do not feel any
kind of negative emotions while using or hearing those terms.
May be I am unable to put my emotions in perfect words at this time. But I
am expecting some productive discussion on this topic from our experienced
and knowledgable members.
Thanks and regards,
Rohiet

Dear All
Hi

I was driving yesterday suddenly heard a message from radio Fm 98.30
CHANNEL regarding NETRA HEEN . some how the feel was not good . I
felt that it was worst we can do for them .one way we are trying to
include them in mainstream and media is giving a different feel . Some
how doesnot came healthy to me .

I request every body to please lets pray and work to delete that
thinner line which has been drawn between disability and mainstream .
there is nothing they cannot do its heart that matters .

Lets join together in removing that thinner line lets stop pittying
them . yesterday after hearing this radio fm message by my 7 years
old son he replied

MOM who are netra heen ? How are we Netra heen, EVEN WHEN WE CAN SEE IN
DARK .

so lets see possibilities not disabilities
Thanks
Anjina
