Hi, But I know how much Vishal had to struggle to get respondents for his research. Access India has a membership of more than 2000. But it was disappointing to see the number of people who have come forward to fill up the questionnaire, that took hardly a few minutes to complete. We take every opportunity to blast the government, a bank, railways, or some other organisation when they discriminate against disability. But it was disheartening to see the participation rate for the research which eventually brought a positive change in our lives. I take this opportunity to urge all to be active in activities that relate to us.
Having said this, I would like to clarify that all the above are my personal thoughts and not opinions of Vishal jain. So, if there is anything that offended anyone in my post, I take the sole responsibility for it. On 12/18/11, Rakesh <raki.l...@gmail.com> wrote: > Many thanks on behalf of the community Vishal.
