Also baffling is the  question as to how come most--almost all--backlog
vacancies being advertised are precisely those identified for partially
sighted?

2006-10-19 Thread rajesh asudani
Thank you for a detailed briefing on what has been taking place. However, I
wish to submit that creation of the third category of partially blind in
addition to the two mentioned in PWD act, is arbitrary and goes against the
laid down statutes, and hence, any identification for the said new category
and consequent filling up of vacancies for them also militates against the
rule of law. Had the said category not been created in the first place and
had the identification of jobs remained confined to the categories of blind
and low vision, certainly more posts would have been available for the
blind. Given the proposition that persons with higher disability should be
given preference, the lot of the totally blind aspirants would have been
much better. I do not contend that people with partial sight do not exist,
however statutorily they have to belong either to totally blind or low
vision category.

All said and done, I am also aware that life of law [and also that of legal
courts and judgments] is not governed by logic but experience. As once one
famous legal luminary put it: "We are under the Constitution, but
Constitution is what the judge says it is!"

[AI] community radio forum

2006-10-19 Thread Vedprakash Sharma
i went through a news about a new activity in the field of FM Radio. I think 
many of the list members will be interrested in this piece of information. 
therefore, copying the same here:

Activists hail Decision by Group of Ministers/Cabinet Urged to Okay

Media Release

Activists hail Decision by Group of Ministers Cabinet Urged to Okay
Community Radio Policy

New Delhi, October 13, 2006

 The Community Radio Forum of India has hailed the Group of Ministers
 recommendation to clear the Community Radio Policy, drawn up by the Ministry
 of Information and Broadcasting. The new policy will now allow civil society
 organizations, NGOs and other non-profits to apply for Community Radio
 licenses making citizens radio a reality. The Forum urged the Union
 Cabinet to accord the highest priority to approve and notify this policy and
 brings about democratization of Indias airwaves.

 Under the present community radio guidelines, only well-established
 educational institutions are permitted to set up campus-based radio
 stations. Following the landmark Supreme Court judgment of 1995  which
 declared that the airwaves are public property, to be used for public good
 - members of the Community Radio Forum, international advocacy groups such
 as World Association of Community Radio Broadcasters (AMARC), other civil
 society organizations across the country and international development
 organizations including UNESCO and UNDP have, over the past six years,  held
 several consultative meetings with the ministry  to expand the eligibility
 criteria to include community based organizations.

 In May 2004, the I & B Ministry, in consultation with civil society
 representatives including the Forum, drew up a set of policy recommendations
 to allow communities to own and manage their own FM community radio
 stations. In August 2005 the Forum petitioned the Prime Minister
 (
http://www.petitiononline.com/comradio/)
to put an end to this
 discriminatory broadcast policy where corporate houses could buy FM
 frequencies but communities could not own and operate their own stations and
 were left with no other choice but to buy air-time from existing All India
 Radio stations. Members of the Forum have since then collected over 50,000
 signatures on this petition.

 News programmes and advertisements are currently banned on campus radio.
 The new policy will not only open up community radio to NGOs, self-help
 groups and other community-based organizations, but will also allow them to
 become self-supporting through limited ad-revenue.

 On notification of this policy India will become the first country in South
 Asia to have a separate policy for community radio.

 The Community Radio Forum, which is an association of community radio
 broadcasters, activists and academics looks forward to a genuine
 democratization of the countrys airwaves when this policy comes into force.

Please give me the procedure:

on a pen drive so that I can put these messages back into the inbox after my 
laptop returns to me.

Re: [AI] Need Information

2006-10-19 Thread Keshav Kumar
Hello!

if you wish to convert the partition, without lossing the data, you'll 
require a utility like partition magic.

while converting, without a utility, windows will format the partition to 
NTFS, only, after deleting the data.

regards,
Keshav.

  Hello sir,
Skype is a program which allows you to talk or IM with another person using 
this program or, if you by the skype credit, it will also allow you to talk 
to people in ordinary phones.

You can download the program from the program website itself, which is, 
www.skype.com.

To make it more compatible with jaws, you may wish to download the jfw 
scripts for skype. The scripts can be found in the URL given below:
