[AI] Release Dr. Saibaba -- Joint Protest on May 9

2015-05-08 Thread National Platform For The Rights of the Disabled
Dear All,

Given below is the petition that we have given to the National Human Rights
Commission demanding the immediate release of Dr. Saibaba.

On his completion of one year in the Nagpur Jail the Committee for the
defence and Release of GN Saibaba, which includes activists, DU teachers
etc. is organising a one day hunger strike on May 9, at the arts faculty in
North Campus of the Delhi University. The programme will begin at 10.00
a.m. and will continue till the evening. All disability rights activists
based in Delhi are requested to join.


Text of letter sent to NHRC



April 27, 2015





*Justice K.G. Balakrishnan*

*Chairman*

*National Human Rights Commission*

*New Delhi*





Dear Sir,



Dr G. N. Saibaba, a 47-year old teacher in Ram Lal College of Delhi
University was arrested by the Maharashtra Police on May 9, 2014, allegedly
for political leanings. Even before being formally arrested, he was
subjected to many indignities during his interrogation and confinement.



Dr Saibaba is a wheelchair user with 90% disability. Since his arrest, he
has been lodged in the Nagpur Central Jail, where he is facing tremendous
difficulty owing to the jail premises being completely inaccessible. The
jail authorities and the police are completely insensitive to Saibaba’s
needs as a human being. For instance, his wheelchair was broken due to
mishandling. No accessible toilets have been made available to him. The
infrastructure within the jail premises is totally unfriendly as far as
persons with disabilities are concerned. Living in such a disabled
unfriendly environment and being continuously mistreated and mishandled by
the jail personnel, Dr. Saibaba is in a precarious medical and health
situation. Despite a recent Sessions court order which asked the jail
authorities to get medical intervention, the jail authorities have not
taken any action.



India has signed and ratified the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons
with Disabilities as also the Convention against Torture and Other Cruel,
Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment. As an undertrial, Dr. Saibaba
is entitled to being treated as a human being, living with dignity and be
provided with basic facilities. At present Dr Saibaba is going through
continuous degradation of his physical self due to the inaccessible
environment and mental abuse by the concerned authorities.



Despite Saibaba being an under trial, he cannot be denied his basic rights
as a human being.



Section  46 of the* Persons with Disabilities Act, 1995 mandates that all
public buildings should be accessible (including toilets). *



India has ratified the* UN convention on Rights of Persons with disability
(UNCRPD). Article 13 states that the “**States Parties shall ensure
effective access to justice for persons with disabilities on an equal basis
with others, including through the provision of procedural and
age-appropriate accommodations, in order to facilitate their effective role
as direct and indirect participants, including as witnesses, in all legal
proceedings, including at investigative and other preliminary stages*.”



Article 14 states that “States Parties shall ensure that persons with
disabilities, on an equal basis with others: (a)   Enjoy the right to
liberty and security of person; (b) Are not deprived of their liberty
unlawfully or arbitrarily, and that any deprivation of liberty is in
conformity with the law, and that the existence of a disability shall in no
case justify a deprivation of liberty.”



Article 15 states that* “1. **No one shall be subjected to torture or to
cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment. In particular, no one
shall be subjected without his or her free consent to medical or scientific
experimentation.  2. States parties shall take all effective legislative,
administrative, judicial or other measures to prevent persons with
disabilities, on an equal basis with others, from being subjected to
torture or cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment.”*



Dr. Saibaba is in jail virtually without trial. The Delhi University
Teacher’s Association along with many others have vociferously protested,
sought his release and called for his being treated as a human being with
equal rights.



Dr Saibaba's case is only the latest example of the humiliation, indignity
and violence that most people with disabilities are subjected to when they
are arrested, incarcerated, institutionalised or otherwise engage with
law-enforcement agencies. This blatant violation of the Constitution and of
India's commitments under a range of international treaties should be a
source of shame for every right-thinking Indian.



We request the NHRC to intervene to see that that Dr Saibaba is granted
bail and released. In the meanwhile the enquiry may proceed and if proved
guilty, he may be proceeded against as per provisions of the law. Pending
his release basic provisions required for a person with disability should
be provided within the jail

While reading the report I found that the committee doesn't seem to be very 
much in tune with the UNCRPD and the discussion about the naming of the Bill 
sounds quite patronizing. I'm pasting the section here below:

 

Title of the Bill 3.1 While examining the views of individuals/stakeholders and 
organizations on the Bill, it was pointed out to the Committee that the title 
of the Bill sounded derogatory and disparaging and therefore, needs to be 
modified. Across all section of stakeholders, an unanimous view emerged that 
the title of the Bill, may be changed and made preferably as ―Rights of Persons 
with Different Abilities or Special Abilities‖. 3.2 When the Ministry was asked 
to justify the existing title of the Bill, they in their written reply stated 
as under: ―The Bill is in line with UNCRPD. The UNCRPD uses the term Persons 
with Disabilities. Some Persons with Disabilities have objection to use of 
words 'differently abled' or 'specially abled‖. 3.3 The Committee are of the 
view that using the words “Persons with Disabilities” in the title of the Bill 
not only sound disparaging but also belittle the enormous talent, capacity and 
ability these persons possess to take up any challenge and compete with other 
normal human beings. Further, the present title itself declares them as 
„persons with disabilities‟ whereas the intention and purpose of the Bill is to 
empower them and give them their rightful due. In fact, the Committee 
themselves were awe-struck when they witnessed, during their close interaction 
with these people, the special knack and endowment of these people. The 
Committee are of the considered view that the present title of the Bill does 
not justify the talent and aptitude these persons own. The Committee, 
therefore, recommend that the Bill could be titled either as “The Rights of 24 
Persons with the Different Abilities” or “The Rights of Persons with Special 
Abilities” or “The Rights of the Differently Able persons” which is not only 
more progressive and encouraging but will also help correct the discourse about 
the disabled people besides reducing their psychological complexes.

Re: [AI] FW: [WeThePwd:1663] Attached RPWD Bill report by standing committee MSJE, India

2015-05-08 Thread avinash shahi
My reading of the Standing Committee's Report

I’m glad to see the Standing Committee has recommended for extending
the definition of ‘establishment’ to the private sector also.
However,while discussing the clause on Special Employment exchange,
The committee again provides patronizing  suggestion: “The Committee
also want the Ministry to consider the feasibility of renaming such an
exchange as Employment Exchange for Differently Able People as it
appears more progressive and dynamic.” (p 33). Further, I wonder why
committee has not dwelled on the issue of inaccessibility faced by
blind/deaf while viewing Television programmes. In the definition of
information and communication,only telecom and web-based services have
been included. (p 36).

On the issue of legal capacity I think government and the committee
understanding have improved a bit. For instance
Block quote
When the Committee specifically enquired whether the deaf and
dumb and the blind can be recognized as witnesses before the court of
law, the Ministry in their written reply stated :
Clause 11(4)(c) casts responsibility on the appropriate government to
make available all necessary facilities and equipment to facilitate
recording of testimonies, arguments or opinion given by PwDs in their
preferred language and means of communication. It has now been agreed
that the words sign language can be included under the definition of
communication. Thus it would be incumbent upon the government to make
provision for recording of testimonies of the hearing impaired persons
in sign language i.e. the preferred mode of communication in terms of
Clause 11. As regards blind and other PwDs, the clause takes care of
this aspect. Indian Evidence Act and other relevant laws could be
considered for similar amendment, if necessary. (pp 43-44).
Block quote end
However the issue of limited and plenary guardianship is yet to be resolved.

Sadly, in the discussion of education, the entire focus has been on
‘inclusive education’. The specialised schools which cater to the
needs of majority of disabled students have been left out. I wish the
Standing Committee had discussed the surveys conducted by NCERT in
several states which highlighted the huge dropouts of children with
disabilities from ‘inclusive schools’. Interestingly, when the
Committee asked the Ministry for substituting phrase ‘within the
limits of its economic capacity’ See how smartly ministry took shelter
under the garb of the Constitution.
Block quote
3.86When the Ministry was asked to state whether the words 'the
appropriate Government to the maximum of resources' be substituted for
'limit of its economic capacity', the Ministry stated that, Article
41 of the Constitution, which is relevant for empowerment of PwDs,
uses the phrase limit of its economic capacity and development. To
maintain the same spirit and alignment with the Constitution, the same
phrase has been used in the Bill.
Block quote end
However, story is complicated.The persons with disabilities are
seeking constitutional amendment to obtain constitutional  recognition
under article 15,isn’t it?

And on the matter of accessibility of recreational programmes an
culture, committee has rightly expressed its apprehensions.
Block quote
The Committee, while taking note of the wordings of Clause 28(g), are
still not convinced that this Clause befittingly addresses the
decisive issues of promoting deaf culture, giving them access to more
TV programmes with sign language, interpreters/subtitles etc. The
Committee, therefore, desire that this Clause should appropriately
also include issues of promotion of deaf culture, access to more TV
programmes with sign language, interpreters/subtitles etc. (p 66).
Block quote end

And interestingly, where in the beginning Committee recommends for
using ‘differently-abled or specially-abled as the title of the Act,
however in chapter vi on persons with benchmark disabilities it
suggests: the Committee desire the Ministry to (i) delete the word
special from the title of Chapter VI, (ii) replace the phrase if
necessary with  of her/his choice”. However recommendations for
age-relaxation for availing free education till 21 years instead of 18
could be welcome by certain groups.

Further, while reviewing chapter which deals with the duties and
responsibilities of the state, Committee sends out strong
recommendations
Block quote
The Committee note that rights of persons with disabilities have been
left out in the curriculum of schools for the reasons best known to
the Ministry. The Committee feel that the rights of these people ought
to be part of school curriculum too so that PwDs students are aware of
their rights at an early stage of their life. The Committee,
therefore, desire that in Clause 38(2)(f), the word schools be added
before the word universities”. (p 79).
Block quote end

Now comes the chapter on National Commission for Persons with
Disabilities,and here again the demand for disabled chairperson is

[AI] Voice of the voiceless

2015-05-08 Thread avinash shahi
http://www.thehindu.com/todays-paper/tp-features/tp-metroplus/voice-of-the-voiceless/article7186130.ece
Rejections did not deter Anees Salim. His patience is paying off in a
handsome manner
The words of angstAnees SalimPhoto: K.K.Mustafah
The words of angstAnees SalimPhoto: K.K.Mustafah He is widely read. He
wins The Hindu prize. He stays away from the award presentation. He is
too shy, too much of a recluse to come to Chennai to receive an award
in front of a packed auditorium. That was all in January, 2014.

Come to 2015. His The Blind Lady’s Descendants is making waves,
winning critical acclaim. The book is shortlisted for The Raymond
Crossword Book Award (Indian fiction category) in Mumbai. He wins the
prize again, ahead of the bright and cheery Shovon Chowdhury and quiet
and self-deprecating Hansda Sowvendra Shekhar. He does not show up for
the award ceremony again.

Flashback to life earlier: he drops out of schools. He pens four
novels, sends his manuscript to different publishers and literary
agents. He is turned down each time. He does not give up, confident
that eventually one of his books would be published.

He surprises himself; all four books are published, two of them win awards.

Welcome to the multi-layered world of Anees Salim, the new age
literary hermit. No book launches, no lit fests, no award ceremonies.
No television interviews. Hardly any print chats either. His published
words do all the talking. And Anees, endearingly humble, incessantly
brave – ironical considering he avoids being in the public eye – opens
a little window to his works, his world.

You are said to have written one book after another to kill the pain
of rejection. Now that you seem to be winning one award after another,
does it not wash away all disappointment? It reminds me of that Thums
Up ad of the ’80s: first blood, sweat, tears, loneliness, then 30,000
cheers.

I did not expect to be this lucky after such a long run with bad luck.
Even when I was being rejected I knew one of my manuscripts would
eventually make it. But all of them getting published and two of them
getting awards was a bit unreal for me. These recognitions have made
me unnecessarily wary and self-conscious. Since I won The Hindu prize,
I must have started at least half a dozen new novels and discarded all
of them. Maybe uncertainties bring the best out of a writer.

With the benefit of distance in time, what could have led to some 25
rejections? You are said to have had a feeling of being discriminated
against during the phase of rejection. Could you please elaborate?

Looking back, I realise what a complete novice I was back then. I did
not have any knack for writing query letters and synopses. Sometimes I
wrote rambling mails, sometimes curt ones. My contributions to slush
pile must have been really big. I lived in a small town then, I did
not know anybody important from literary circles. I wrote only to
successful literary agents. I should have written to struggling ones
as well, who would at least have read the manuscript to the last page
before turning me down.

Yes, rejections made me really sour. I started to believe that they
rejected me because I had neither attended any creative writing course
nor gone to a foreign university.

Amazingly, when this phase ended with four books coming out in a year
followed by The Hindu prize, and now the Crossword award, you remained
a recluse, not quite ready to come in the public eye and relate your
story….

I am a bigger recluse now than I used to be at the beginning of my
writing career. I don’t think awards can make me step into the public
space. I don’t miss anything by staying away from all that. My son
tries everything possible to make me attend literary festivals. But I
don’t see him succeeding.

How comfortable are you with the idea of translations? I ask this in
the light of news that two of your books are being translated into
Malayalam…

In fact, three of my books are being translated into Malayalam, one
into Marathi. The French edition of Vanity Bagh is already out. I am
curious to know how they would turn out in Malayalam, because I don’t
understand any other language my books are translated into.

Between Vanity Bagh and The Blind Lady Descendants which of the works
has greater autobiographical elements?

The Blind Lady’s Descendants . It is set in my hometown. Actually, it
is mostly set in the house I lived in till I ran away from my
hometown. I grew up around the characters in this book, fighting with
them, patching up with them, plotting against them, sometimes even
fantasising about them. I sketched the blind lady in the book from my
grandmother, who was blind and poor. But the story has nothing to do
with the life we lived in that big house in the small town.

Finally, you give multiple voices and layered narratives to your
Muslim characters in the age of stereotypes. How difficult is it to
voice the angst of the voiceless within the community and outside?

For reasons I don’t
