Re: [AI] urgent response needed from teachers in schools,

[sampath raj rao]

Ya that can be done, and I was doing it initially...But it is very
difficult to design mind maps and aligning the contents.
Moreover, to my knowledge no teacher in TN use to write it and because
of me they shouldn't be forced to do as I do as officials usually
don't understand the practical difficulties of us. infact how many VI
teachers has access to computers?
How about you? where are you working and how you manage such things?

Re: [AI] Mysuru to be the first to make rail travel easier for visually-challenged

[Asudani, Rajesh]

Audio speakers installed at the gates of coaches announcing coach numbers when 
the train is stationary and also on display boards making similar announcements 
in a low but clear voice, and internal speakers inside the coaches informing 
necessary things by driver/guard would facilitate travel not only for blind but 
also very many people.


Braille numbering on berths and washrooms would hardly be used actually by the 
blind meaningfully.

Where are our accessibility experts of the sector? what's their take
on this? or we don't have one?
I feel providing train chart in braille will be of less use cause we
often use phone/net to confirm via 139. And if our tickets are in AC
coaches we get an SMS informing us about the PNR status.
Braille-imbedded coaches are a good idea and has a merit. However
Braille embossed staircase railings will hardly serve any purpose. And
yes escort assistance by the railways on the stations should be
explored. Lets use all resources in tendum. We can't do away with
Braille altogether. If there are many who don't know Braille there are
 others who solely rely on Braille.

[akshun mahajan]

I second Rajesh bahai, even if We wish to explorer the way by Braille
. when there is great rush in the train Neither crowd will allow to
touch us nor we will be able to explorer Braille under those
circumstances.
Braille is only good for sensitizing people with regard to visually
impaired persons.

[AI] Article of Interest: Is Seventh Pay Commission the big stimulus that auto sector needs?

[avinash shahi]

A historical analysis of auto sales shows that arrears and pay hikes
of government employees have led to immediate spike in the purchase of
two-wheelers and passenger vehicles in the country. Photo: Ramesh
Pathania/Mint
http://www.livemint.com/Industry/5T0oR9HdHr1YUPgdT2ZSDL/Is-Seventh-Pay-Commission-the-big-stimulus-that-auto-sector.html
New Delhi: India’s automobile sector is keenly awaiting the
recommendations of the Seventh Pay Commission in the hope that
government employees will flock to showrooms with their pockets loaded
with cash.

Yet, what may still go against the industry is if the Pay Commission’s
recommendations are implemented as soon as the report is submitted.
This will mean that the implementation may not have any retrospective
impact, unlike in the past, and that will lead to less or no lump sum
amount as arrears in the accounts of government employees, which in
turn may not have the desired impact on auto sales.

However, a historical analysis of auto sales shows that arrears and
pay hikes of government employees have led to immediate spike in the
purchase of two-wheelers and passenger vehicles in the country.

For example, when the government implemented the Sixth Pay Commission
report in 2008, sales of passenger vehicles grew 19.45% to 2.22
million units in 2008-09 and 21.18% to 2.8 million units in 2009-10,
according to data provided by the Society of Indian Automobile
Manufacturers (Siam). Sales of two-wheelers grew 16.11% to 9.7 million
units in 2008-09 and 31.22% to 12.73 million in 2009-10.

During this period, the total remuneration of Central government
employees alone went up from Rs.45,962.60 crore in 2007-08 to
Rs.73,717.80 crore and Rs.96,589.70 crore in 2008-09 and 2009-10,
respectively, according to data provided by the Centre for Monitoring
Indian Economy.

Pay packages of government employees rose by an average of 35%, as per
the recommendations of the Sixth Pay Commission. They also received
arrears for more than 30 months due to delay in the implementation of
the report.

The Sixth Pay Commission had submitted its report a little ahead of
its deadline on 24 March 2008. The revised pay scales were implemented
retrospectively, starting 1 January 2006, while recommendations
relating to allowances were implemented prospectively.

This was also the period when the global economy was grappling with
economic recession and car sales in India were helped by the Indian
government’s move to reduce excise duty by 4 percentage points to 8%.

Following the Fifth Pay Commission report that was implemented in
September 1997, sales of passenger vehicles jumped 33.19% to 689,000
units in 1998-99 and two-wheeler sales grew 11.74% to 3.64 million
units.

When the Fourth Pay Commission report was implemented in 1987-88,
sales of two-wheelers jumped 11.37% to 1.55 million in 1988-99 and 11%
to 1.75 million in 1989-90. Sales of passenger vehicles grew 12.38% to
219,000 in 1988-99 and declined 2% in 1989-90. Those were the days
when India was still opening to globalization.

From the Seventh Pay Commission, there are expectations of tweaks to
retirement age, performance-linked pay and flexible work hours for
women and employees with disabilities, apart from pay hikes. In
August, the government extended the Commission’s term by another four
months till 31 December to give recommendations. The recommendations
were expected to be effective from 1 January 2016. If there are
delays, the pay revisions would again be done with retrospective
effect.

India employs at least 4.8 million Central government employees and
5.5 million pensioners and over 10 million state and local government
employees. An increase in their salaries will open up an ocean of
opportunities for Indian auto makers, some of whom are still
recovering from a prolonged slowdown that started in 2012.

Passenger vehicle sales have grown 6.22% to 1.33 million units during
April-September, while sales of two-wheelers have declined 0.36% to
8.11 million units.

[AI] Girls with Disabilities: Disability factor | Another hurdle to cross

[avinash shahi]

Manjula Rath always dreamt of becoming a university professor, but it
was only in 2008 that she applied and got a job in Delhi University.

New Delhi: Manjula Rath was eight years old, the eldest among her
siblings, when her father decided to leave.

“Looking at four blind children every day and knowing he couldn’t do
anything about it, he was sure we had no future,” she says
matter-of-factly.

Because Rath and her siblings could see a little in the beginning,
there seemed some hope of recovery. But with their vision
deteriorating over time, it was clear they would never be able to see.
All four, three girls and a boy, have retinitis pigmentosa, a rare,
genetic disorder that gradually breaks down cells in the
light-sensitive tissue lining the back of the eye, known as retina.

Until she was seven, Rath could read in sunlight or in a well-lit
room. But as the disease progressed, it became impossible for her to
read or recognize faces, making her one of over 2.3 million visually
impaired women in India.

Children with disabilities rarely progress beyond primary education.
An estimated 90% of children with disabilities in the developing world
do not go to school. In India, 38% of children aged between 6 and 13
with disabilities were found to be out of school, according to a
January 2014 UNICEF report. An earlier study by the World Bank noted
that children with disabilities are five times more likely to be out
of school than children belonging to scheduled castes or scheduled
tribes.

No school means both more social alienation from the community and
limited employment opportunities. Yet, Rath managed to buck the trend.

It has been anything but an easy ride. When her father left, the joint
family also withdrew its support. It adopted the attitude of “jab beta
nahin, toh bahu kaise (when the son is gone, how can there be a
daughter-in-law)”, she says. So Rath’s mother, who had never worked
before, began supporting the family, sure of only one thing: she
wanted her children educated so that they could be independent, unlike
many families in India, for whom a disabled woman is a “burden” and
“fits well into the stereotype of passivity and dependency”, as a 2007
report done by the Society for Disability and Rehabilitation Studies,
for the National Commission for Women, states.

“There is gender discrepancy in education in this country. This
multiplies in the case of a disabled girl. She is the least of the
priorities of her parents when it comes to education because they
assume no one will marry her and she will never get a job,” says Asha
Hans of the Shanta Memorial Rehabilitation Centre, a voluntary
organization working for the disabled.

A nationwide survey on the status of disabled students in leading
Indian colleges, institutes and universities, conducted by the
National Centre for Promotion of Employment for Disabled People in
2015, found that disabled students comprise a mere half percentage
point of the total of over 1.5 million students enrolled in the top
150 colleges across the country. Of these 8,449 disabled students, an
overwhelming 74.08% were men and only 22.07 % were women. The streams
with maximum enrolment of students with visual impairment, like Rath,
were science (57%), arts (55%) and commerce (42%).

Rath’s journey started in a ‘normal’ school, as she calls it. The
other 24 students in her class had no disability. Even though she
could read and write in bright sunlight at that age, the teacher chose
to ignore her. “She didn’t even acknowledge me as a human being, leave
alone a student,” she says. During roll call, for instance, her name
was skipped, as if she was invisible.


Leaping to Learn: Part III

The high price of dreaming
After primary school, Rath managed to get admission to the President
Estate School in New Delhi. It was here that two teachers gave her
special education lessons during free periods. Rath learnt to read
Braille. Illiteracy levels are high across all categories of
disability, but mostly so for children with visual, multiple and
mental disabilities. One out of three blind people in the world lives
in India, according to the Blind Foundation of India. There are
approximately two million blind children in India and only 5% receive
any education.

The Right to Free and Compulsory Education Act, 2009 focuses on
inclusive education, stating that all students, whether disabled or
otherwise, must have access to education in mainstream schools and
colleges. But with discrimination entrenched in the social fabric, an
inflexible curriculum, bullying by classmates and the paucity of
trained teachers, educating the disabled becomes all the more
challenging.

For disabled girls, attaining education seems like an insurmountable
task, battling not just the lack of infrastructure for all
differently-abled students but additional stigmatization,

What about deafblind? I guess we should not leave behind the most
marginalized among us while mulling policy. Lets use audio/Braille
together.

[AI] Fwd: {Disability Studies India} Making higher education accessible in India

To: "disability-studies-in...@googlegroups.com"


Hi All,
Thought this article may be of interest:

http://epaper.deccanchronicle.com/articledetailpage.aspx?id=3963923

The news piece suggests that a course that has a fairly substantial
film-viewing element was not made accessible for the student.

Below is th text of the piece that does not have certain details that
appeared in the print version:

*Hyderabad:* Admission of a visually challenged PhD girl student which was
cancelled by the English and Foreign Languages University (EFLU) got
reinstated by an interim order of the Hyderabad High Court recently. The
girl student was made to run pillar to post by the university which forced
her to approach the High Court.

As per affidavit filed by the student in High Court, her admission was
cancelled without any prior notice. In her affidavit she alleged that the
course instructor was prejudiced against her, her request for
re-invigilation was not granted and that the university’s coordinator for
the cell for disabled even suggested to Vice-Chancellor that she be given
another chance to which there was no reply.

The girl has done her masters and M.Phil from University of Hyderabad. As
per sources, the subject Contemporary India has some portion dedicated to
films which is necessary to ‘watch’ to understand and this proved a
problem. The girl’s case was taken up in the High Court by V. Raghunath of
Civil Liberties Committee.

best,
Shilpaa

[Asudani, Rajesh]

A good piece.
However, following line perplexes me:

" streams with maximum enrolment of students with visual impairment, like Rath, 
were science (57%), arts (55%) and commerce (42%)."


Do more blind pupils now  study science than arts and commerce?

It was not so in my college days surely.

Have we progressed so much in these twenty years, or... is it just another 
piece of careless reporting?

Hi
On some pen drives, there is a write protect switch. See if you can find in the

Re: [AI] need your help

[George Abraham]

This problem in my understanding has to be sorted out by your employers.
They are commited to providing an accessible work environment. Please take
this up with your IT department. I am sure someone on the list who is tech
savvy might  give you a way around your problem. But it is important to fix
the responsibility where it belongs.

Re: [AI] urgent response needed from teachers in schools,

[Vedprakash]

In Delhi, neither the sighted teachers nor the visually impaired have to
make any lesson plans. Of course, they have to maintain a teacher's diary.
This diary is weekly checked by the head of the school. However, no H O S
forces the visually impaired to maintain the diary. Although, sometimes,
they keep on asking questions about the said diary.
Many of my teacher friends maintain the diary in Braille. But nobody checks
and signs the same as none is able to read and verify the text in the diary.

Subject: Re: [AI] urgent response needed from teachers in schools,

Ya that can be done, and I was doing it initially...But it is very difficult
to design mind maps and aligning the contents.
Moreover, to my knowledge no teacher in TN use to write it and because of me
they shouldn't be forced to do as I do as officials usually don't understand
the practical difficulties of us. infact how many VI teachers has access to
computers?
How about you? where are you working and how you manage such things?
