Though not physically, but mentally I am very much with the protestors at parlimant street.
If the present draft bill fails to clearly define low vision, does not have adequate penal provisions, has weak institutions to monitor and enforce the law, justifies discrimination on ground of disability for furthering so-called legitimate aims, places persons with high support needs in pattronage of RCI, does not say who may be included in high support needs, and so on, why should we have it in the first place? Only solace perhaps is bifurcation of reservation for blind and low vision.... that too by giving half a percent to each it makes mockery of biggest group of persons with disabilities... -----Original Message----- From: worldopin...@googlegroups.com [mailto:worldopin...@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of avinash shahi Sent: Friday, February 07, 2014 9:11 AM To: jnuvision; accessindia; sayeverything; worldopinion Subject: (WorldOpinion) Must attend Protest against the Bill at Parliament Street today at 11 AM Dear Comrades Do join us today please, if not today then we'll lose this battle. And our future generations will never forgive us. We have not slept last night and have been meeting mailing and calling MPS of Rajya Sabha through all means that we possess. fortunately we managed to contect 40MPS of various parties and breiff them about the ramifications of this RPD Bill. Many of them assured they will oppose the Bill few said: they will refer to the Standing Committee. in a desperate and sudden move last late night Government uploaded revised list of legislative business to be conducted on 7 feb 2014. It is going to introduce RPD Bill today later in the day. as we read the revised list last night we have been tirelessly doing what we can do to prevent the passage of this Black law. Please do circulate this call widely, and ask people to join us. those who have internet accesss please inform those who couldn't follow such unexpected development last night. -- Avinash Shahi M.Phil Research Scholar Centre for The Study of Law and Governance Jawaharlal Nehru University New Delhi India -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "worldopinion" group.
