Re: [AI] Accessibility of BSNL payment portal
Exactly. I too did that without knowing how! Thanks I have bank account with more than one bank so that I could pay whichever bank that gets selected. In fact, the popular banks like SBI are the ones that are more difficult to select. The earlier version was very accessible if we have web visum for the capcha.

Re: [AI] want to know about available places for scanning book for visually impaired
You can take any HP scanner or Cannon scanner. There are basic and advanced models available in market. As far as the scanning results are concerns, both the scanners have more or less similar output, but for me, speed of the scanner matters a lot. A scanner having faster speed will cost you not less than 15,000 rupees, but if you can compromise with the speed, you can take HP JET 3110, it has the speed of 2 - 3 pages per minute, while former will scan 6 pages per minute. Else you can take digital scanner like LexCam or ReadIt, it will cost you around 40,000 rupees.

Re: [AI] My paragraph of the Day: Thank you Mr Narendra M odi for the ‘divyang’
That proves my basic contention that it is the definition and not the word that counts. The list discussed different angles of the word divyang. Modi and BJP were held responsible for the term by some of the members. But nobody's bothered about the term itself.

If the word has to be changed, let us try to find the best option. I have never been very comfortable with the word disabled. It hurts somewhere within me. Have my abilities been discarded? The term disabled looks opposite to the ablebodied. It infers that there are two kinds of persons - those who have got some or the other abilities and those who have not. In this manner, the word Divyang is better than the word viklang. Viklang is negative in its connotations while the word divyang gives a positive effect - though a bit exaggerated. Divyang is associated to some divinity which is not correct in actuality. However, PM has proposed it and we are therefore discussing its good/bad effects. Therefore, let us try to find the best alternative to this.

I think some NGOs like NAB, Mitra Jyoti can scan study books free of cost and will include in their library for other students too. If you require to scan books more than often, I would suggest you to purchase one good scanner and can scan books by yourself whenever needed.

Re: [AI] want to know about available places for scanning book for visually impaired
Dear friends, First of all, Thanks for your quick response. My intension is where one can scan the book at cheapest price. Scanning a book which has around 1000 page costs rs. 3000. I use to scan book for my CBSE UGC NET preparation and other competitive exams. Not only for exam purpose, out of my own interest I use to scan book for general reading purpose. if one or two book the above mentioned cost is bearable but I use to scan book more often. is there any standard rate for scanning book for visually impaired. To be cost effective, I am exploring what are all the option available for visually impaired to scan books at cheapest price. Venkataraman Nagarajan sir mentioned about worth trust for scanning book. My motive is what are all the places or centers available for scanning book for visually impaired at cheapest price And what the cost would be. With in a month I plan to scan a books for upcoming exams. Thanking you Celebrating Louis Braill birthday, Jan. 4th.

Re: [AI] Download link of the book 20 stories of Change
I've read the 94 page book. Its a good job indeed. I'd like to make some critical comments and observations. 1. The foreword to the book written by Mr Javed Abidi is very engaging. However it would have been more engrossing if the details of the drafting of the PWDA were provided to some extent. Who drafted the Bill and were people with disabilities consulted? I'd like to draw attention to a report published by IndiaToday on November 30 1988. It read out block quote A draft bill prepared by the Ministry of Social Welfare - for introduction in Parliament during the ongoing winter session - incorporates many recommendations of the Baharul Islam Committee, which had suggested in its report submitted on June 30 that the Constitution be amended to reserve the following for handicapped people: Four per cent of government jobs at all levels. Four per cent jobs in all public sector units. Four per cent jobs in all private sector units with more than 100 employees. Three per cent executive jobs in all private sector establishments with over 100 employees. Four per cent seats in all government colleges and schools. http://indiatoday.intoday.in/story/draft-bill-recommends-reservation-the-handicapped/1/330016.html block quote end 2. The Editors' of the book note that the 20 stories from twenty states are covered. However while reading the book one finds that more than one stories from couple of states are featured. It is great to see stories from J&K and the northeast are covered. Moreover, careful reading of the book gives a feeling that The majority of stories in the book were also given wide publicity in the media. All-in-all, its a good collection.
