It is almost a  news to me that court proceedings are not recorded and are left 
to concentration powers of judges, even though I all along suspected so.
India is really absurd.

Subject: [AI] Article in MM 8 June 2018

may be a new carrier for visually impaired transcriptionists

*Word for word*



*Jamshed Mistry, a Bombay High Court advocate, wants legal transcription to be 
introduced in courts. *

In January, when Advocate Indira Jaising filed a public interest petition in 
theSupreme Court asking for the introduction of live streaming of court 
proceedings,advocate Jamshed Mistry saw an appropriate occasion to add a 
request of his own. Together with Amrish Kilachand (the petitioner), Mistry, a 
High Court lawyer based in Mumbai, filed an intervention application (IA) 
asking for legal transcription to be introduced as well.

While Hollywood courtroom dramas showcase stenographers taking down every word 
— there also is an episode of Friends in which Ross yells at the stenographer 
to “stop typing” — in India it is a little known fact that records of court 
proceedings are not maintained. Only when the judge asks specifically for 
something to be written down is it done. Otherwise, what transpired is left to 
the memory of those in attendance.

For Mistry, the IA was the culmination of an idea that struck him when he was 
arguing a case in Canada in 2013. That was the first time he saw transcription 
in court, and later, when he read the transcript, he thought it was fantastic. 
“Even today, when you read it, you actually think you are in court,” he says.

A conversation with Susan Anton, the then-law minister and attorney general of 
British Columbia, cemented his realisation that the Indian legal system needed 
transcription. She was surprised Indian courts did not use transcription. “‘How 
do you prepare your appeal?’” Mistry recalls her asking. “She said, ‘That means 
whatever is argued, you hope, is captured by the judge and written in an 
order.’ I said, ‘Yes, the word is hope. It causes all sorts of complications.’”


Armed with this experience, Mistry, who is in his 50s, began to hunt for a 
legal basis to ask for transcription. He believes he has found it in Section 12 
of the Persons with Disabilities Act, which talks about access to justice. “It 
says that the depositions should be in a format that is accessible to a person 
with disabilities. If you interpret that for a person who has a hearing 
disability, how will he or she know what is happening in court? It has to be 
transcribed.”

Still, the question of affordability remained until Mistry discovered that 
Parliament and Assembly proceedings are already transcribed. “The technology 
[speech to text], the intent, the meaning — everything is there a few buildings 
away [from the Supreme Court] at Parliament House.” In fact, Mistry says, back 
in the 1970s, Parliament used to change stenographers every five minutes so 
they did not lose concentration.

According to him, the benefits of legal transcription would be numerous:
there would be greater access to justice, better court discipline, better 
record-keeping and better reporting on court proceedings, since reporters would 
have access to the transcripts, as well as employment opportunities for 
stenographers. He also wants law schools to adopt the same system in moot 
courts, so the next generation of lawyers gets used to the system. “I didn’t 
feel diffident in court knowing that transcription was on and I don’t think any 
lawyer should,” Mistry says.

The first hearing of the case was held on May 3 and the next hearing is 
scheduled for July 5. Meanwhile, the Supreme Court has asked the government to 
respond to the requests for live streaming and legal transcription. On his 
part, Mistry is confident the application will succeed since the Attorney 
General and Jaisingh expressed their support in court.

You don’t have commonality like this in these matters. Usually, you will have 
somebody opposing, somewhere,” Mistry says. “Of course, it will have to start 
as a pilot project. Start with constitutional cases. Start with final hearing. 
In sensitive cases, you can have transcripts but you don’t have to give it out. 
All the systems are in place. In light of this, I can’t see the government 
saying no. Now it is up to the judiciary.”

A shabby excuse.
I don't think the offence under RPWD cannot be tried in ordinary court if the 
special courts are yet to be set up.
Courts can be designated as special courts which sadly is not yet done.

Disabled Suffer:

Over 410 railway cases pending trial



MUMBAI: More than 400 cases registered by the railway police since last year 
for illegal travel in coaches for the handicapped haven't gone to trial yet.
Reason being the state has failed to set up a special court 
 to try offences 
committed against thedisabled 
. The Rights of Persons 
with Disabilities (RPWD) Act provides for a fine of up to Rs 1 lakh if an 
able-bodied commuter is found guilty of travelling in a compartment reserved 
for the disabled. But the Act requires a special court to try the cases.

Security agencies are left with no option but to apply the Indian Railways 
Act where the fine 
is a mere Rs 500. Able-bodied commuters, many of them government servants or 
off-duty policemen, throng handicapped compartments during peak hours. There 
have been instances of disabled commuters suffering injuries after they fell 
out of the coach.




The RPWD Act replaced the Persons with Disabilities Act, 1995, and was framed 
to make Indian law compliant with the UN Convention on Rights of Persons with 
Disabilities.

In April 2017, the Supreme Court had directed special courts to be set up in 
every district within three months. Not a single such court has been set up in 
Mumbai yet. The first case under the Act was registered against a RPF officer, 
VG Sable, on August 19, 2017 by theKurla 
 GRP. A polio-afflicted 
commuter, Sagar Bornare, had filed the complaint.




A senior GRP official said initially they lodged cognizable offences. But 
later, directions were given that illegal travel in handicapped coaches 
constitutes a non-cognizable (NC) offence. "But for investigating and making 
arrests in NC complaints, the law requires a prosecuting agency to take court 
permission. In the absence of special courts, we can't even take these 
permissions. As a result, 410 cases are pending trial," he said.

Congrats!
Retention of capacity to choose own scribe, though less in qualification than 
oneself, along with freedom to use devices, and meet the scribe two days in 
advance is a superb victory.

At least folks now at least, stop using professional scribes.
Accessible exams, if online or computerized, is the ultimate dream.

Subject: [AI] Scribe guidelines

Sorry folks for not reporting for 2 days. A lot of you have already heard what 
happened but let me explain a few issues

1.   You all know that in 2013 we got new guidelines for the use of
scribes. This was far and beyond what had been given by Courts and definitely 
more than what we had demanded at different times.

2.   So far about one year there was not too much of a problem because
no one really implemented the guidelines.

3.   Then the penny dropped-U PS C and others started saying that these
guidelines were unfair.

4.   Some of our own VI candidates decided that these guidelines gave
them the right to have overqualified or should I say coached writers.

5.   Our other VI who suffered because of the special writers complained
to U P S C and to the Courts-Bombay and Eranakulam I am told.

6.   Then the Government set up our committee. We met about 3 times but
could not agree so the MSJE set up a sub-committee.

7.   This subcommittee gave a report which we had to discuss at this
meeting on 20th June.

8.   I had shared the sub-committee's report and the comments of U PS C
and SSC.

9.   Our meeting started an hour and half late because the Secretary had
gone to meet the Minister.

10.   Before she came in the other committee members gave theiropinion on
the subcommittees report. Only Mr. Rungta and I were left to give our comments 
when the Secretary arrived and we started the formal meeting.

11.   It was quite a hot debate.

12.   The problem with govt agencies is that they don't send the same person
to the followup meetings. This includes U P S C and our own NIVH. This hampers 
progressive discussion and we cannot pin the representative down.

13.   There was no problem with compensatory time etc. The recommendations
of the Sub-committee were accepted.

14.   So what have we won or should I say retained-the first right of the
candidate to choose his scribe. If not available then the Examining body can 
provide not less than a matriculate.

15.   Further you can meet your scribe 2 days in advance.

16.   Some other devices etc for other disabilities that can be used.Our
committee added to Sub committee recommendations. This added to the original 
guidelines.

17.   The only problem with the subcommittee's  suggestion is that they are
not allowing you to use your own laptop. I however feel that this should not be 
in the guidelines.  I know atleast 2 members on this list who have used their 
own laptops and didn't have a problem after explanations. This may be 
considered to be a loss and squarely attributable to the subcommittee.

18.   Now the loss that will bother us some day-the scribe has to be less in
qualification than the candidate.

19.   So this guideline has got nothing to do with the exam but only with
the candidate. Keeping in mind that the minimum educational qualification for a 
scribe is matriculation. This does not sound too bad but ground realities will 
tell.

20.   So the meeting ended about three and half hours later with 2 cups of
tea and 4 biscuits thrown in. The Secretary will have to report to the
courts.

21.   The fact that we have the right to choose our own scribe is going to
be debated over and over again until we stop the malpractises and each of you 
reading my email or whatsapp need to take care of the situation. You are
responsible for what lies ahead. I know the argument about supervision.

22.   It is not an easy task to take the whole room on by just 2 people. We
did it because you gave us strength. We were prepared and many weren't.
However it has taken lots of persuasion, anger, raised voices and a lot of 
diplomacy.

23.   What will let us down is the continuous  use of professional scribes.


24.   Please help by giving me the reference to the Bombay High Court and
Eranakulam cases. We will have to intervene.

25.   Thanks to each of you who respond to my urgent requests and give your
input on these crucial issues.

26.   It has been 12 years battling this menace. I wish I dint have to face
a meetingwhere I am told that my people are cheating. I

Re: [AI] Accessible android phone within 15000

2018-06-25 Thread Ajay Minocha
Moto G6 is best in the range, offers latest processor which makes a
lot of difference when you use voice typing or any other vertual
assistant. Samsung is very accessible but it offers too many softwares
which we actually don't need and they end up draining the phone's
capacity. I don't recommend MI A1 because the processor is allmost a
year old and which can make a lot of difference.

Cheers,
Ajay

Re: [AI] Scribe guidelines

2018-06-25 Thread john clayton
I would just like to say, Thank you.
Not just for doing all that you have done and are doing,but for keeping us
in the loop with your concise report.

As for cheating and coatched writers (scribes) I guess there will be
cheating no matter where you go or what you do,but really are issues made
out of when blind individuals end up with bad writers?
 I know its not the right thing to do and so on, but alas. People will be
people.

and
26. none of my people suffer because of bad scribes.
 I know,right? been there, experienced that.

Re: [AI] Accessible android phone within 15000

2018-06-25 Thread john clayton
Hi Rajesh and others,
  Within 15k the phones that would be the most accessible and require least
amount of hassel in terms of accessibility, setup and issues that exist now
or may crop in the future would probably phones that offer pure android
experience.
 One that I have used and heard good things about is the Moto G series line
of phones. They are around the 15k price range, offer a pure android
experience and arent that bad,really.
 They also last you for quite a while (more than samsung anyway) that is
they dont start hanging up within 6 12 months from the date they are
purchased, but that is all I can say.
Updates on android are a matter of spinning the coin and being lucky that
the phone you just bought which was released 4 5 months ago may still offer
you the latest android update that comes out or guess not, you are stuck
with the version you bought the phone with.
Either way, good luck with the purchase and I hope your friend has fun with
whatever they end up buying. :)

One question though at others that have used MI phones.
Are they accessible that is most UI screens along with Icons and the like?
or you have to change everything from the launcher (UI) to the phone/calls
manager and so on?
RedMi phones are pretty good at least looking at their hardware specs but I
havent heard anything at all as regards their accessibility or lack there
off.

[AI] Scribe guidelines

2018-06-25 Thread Kanchan Pamnani
Sorry folks for not reporting for 2 days. A lot of you have already heard
what happened but let me explain a few issues  

1.   You all know that in 2013 we got new guidelines for the use of
scribes. This was far and beyond what had been given by Courts and
definitely more than what we had demanded at different times. 

2.   So far about one year there was not too much of a problem because
no one really implemented the guidelines. 

3.   Then the penny dropped-U PS C and others started saying that these
guidelines were unfair. 

4.   Some of our own VI candidates decided that these guidelines gave
them the right to have overqualified or should I say coached writers. 

5.   Our other VI who suffered because of the special writers complained
to U P S C and to the Courts-Bombay and Eranakulam I am told.  

6.   Then the Government set up our committee. We met about 3 times but
could not agree so the MSJE set up a sub-committee. 

7.   This subcommittee gave a report which we had to discuss at this
meeting on 20th June. 

8.   I had shared the sub-committee's report and the comments of U PS C
and SSC. 

9.   Our meeting started an hour and half late because the Secretary had
gone to meet the Minister. 

10.   Before she came in the other committee members gave theiropinion on
the subcommittees report. Only Mr. Rungta and I were left to give our
comments when the Secretary arrived and we started the formal meeting. 

11.   It was quite a hot debate. 

12.   The problem with govt agencies is that they don't send the same person
to the followup meetings. This includes U P S C and our own NIVH. This
hampers progressive discussion and we cannot pin the representative down.

13.   There was no problem with compensatory time etc. The recommendations
of the Sub-committee were accepted.  

14.   So what have we won or should I say retained-the first right of the
candidate to choose his scribe. If not available then the Examining body can
provide not less than a matriculate.  

15.   Further you can meet your scribe 2 days in advance. 

16.   Some other devices etc for other disabilities that can be used.Our
committee added to Sub committee recommendations. This added to the original
guidelines.  

17.   The only problem with the subcommittee's  suggestion is that they are
not allowing you to use your own laptop. I however feel that this should not
be in the guidelines.  I know atleast 2 members on this list who have used
their own laptops and didn't have a problem after explanations. This may be
considered to be a loss and squarely attributable to the subcommittee.  

18.   Now the loss that will bother us some day-the scribe has to be less in
qualification than the candidate. 

19.   So this guideline has got nothing to do with the exam but only with
the candidate. Keeping in mind that the minimum educational qualification
for a scribe is matriculation. This does not sound too bad but ground
realities will tell. 

20.   So the meeting ended about three and half hours later with 2 cups of
tea and 4 biscuits thrown in. The Secretary will have to report to the
courts. 

21.   The fact that we have the right to choose our own scribe is going to
be debated over and over again until we stop the malpractises and each of
you reading my email or whatsapp need to take care of the situation. You are
responsible for what lies ahead. I know the argument about supervision.   

22.   It is not an easy task to take the whole room on by just 2 people. We
did it because you gave us strength. We were prepared and many weren't.
However it has taken lots of persuasion, anger, raised voices and a lot of
diplomacy. 

23.   What will let us down is the continuous  use of professional scribes.


24.   Please help by giving me the reference to the Bombay High Court and
Eranakulam cases. We will have to intervene.  

25.   Thanks to each of you who respond to my urgent requests and give your
input on these crucial issues.

26.   It has been 12 years battling this menace. I wish I dint have to face
a meetingwhere I am told that my people are cheating. I further wish that
none of my people suffer because of bad scribes.  

Kanchan

Disabled Suffer:

Over 410 railway cases pending trial



MUMBAI: More than 400 cases registered by the railway police since last
year for illegal travel in coaches for the handicapped haven't gone to
trial yet.
Reason being the state has failed to set up a special court
 to try offences
committed against thedisabled
. The Rights of Persons
with Disabilities (RPWD) Act provides for a fine of up to Rs 1 lakh if an
able-bodied commuter is found guilty of travelling in a compartment
reserved for the disabled. But the Act requires a special court to try the
cases.

Security agencies are left with no option but to apply the Indian Railways
Act where the
fine is a mere Rs 500. Able-bodied commuters, many of them government
servants or off-duty policemen, throng handicapped compartments during peak
hours. There have been instances of disabled commuters suffering injuries
after they fell out of the coach.




The RPWD Act replaced the Persons with Disabilities Act, 1995, and was
framed to make Indian law compliant with the UN Convention on Rights of
Persons with Disabilities.

In April 2017, the Supreme Court had directed special courts to be set up
in every district within three months. Not a single such court has been set
up in Mumbai yet. The first case under the Act was registered against a RPF
officer, VG Sable, on August 19, 2017 by theKurla
 GRP. A polio-afflicted
commuter, Sagar Bornare, had filed the complaint.




A senior GRP official said initially they lodged cognizable offences. But
later, directions were given that illegal travel in handicapped coaches
constitutes a non-cognizable (NC) offence. "But for investigating and
making arrests in NC complaints, the law requires a prosecuting agency to
take court permission. In the absence of special courts, we can't even take
these permissions. As a result, 410 cases are pending trial," he said.

may be a new carrier for visually impaired transcriptionists

*Word for word*



*Jamshed Mistry, a Bombay High Court advocate, wants legal transcription to
be introduced in courts. *

In January, when Advocate Indira Jaising filed a public interest petition in
theSupreme Court asking for the introduction of live streaming of court
proceedings,advocate Jamshed Mistry saw an appropriate occasion to add a
request of his own. Together with Amrish Kilachand (the petitioner),
Mistry, a High Court lawyer based in Mumbai, filed an intervention
application (IA) asking for legal transcription to be introduced as well.

While Hollywood courtroom dramas showcase stenographers taking down every
word — there also is an episode of Friends in which Ross yells at the
stenographer to “stop typing” — in India it is a little known fact that
records of court proceedings are not maintained. Only when the judge asks
specifically for something to be written down is it done. Otherwise, what
transpired is left to the memory of those in attendance.

For Mistry, the IA was the culmination of an idea that struck him when he
was arguing a case in Canada in 2013. That was the first time he saw
transcription in court, and later, when he read the transcript, he thought
it was fantastic. “Even today, when you read it, you actually think you are
in court,” he says.

A conversation with Susan Anton, the then-law minister and attorney general
of British Columbia, cemented his realisation that the Indian legal system
needed transcription. She was surprised Indian courts did not use
transcription. “‘How do you prepare your appeal?’” Mistry recalls her
asking. “She said, ‘That means whatever is argued, you hope, is captured by
the judge and written in an order.’ I said, ‘Yes, the word is hope. It
causes all sorts of complications.’”


Armed with this experience, Mistry, who is in his 50s, began to hunt for a
legal basis to ask for transcription. He believes he has found it in
Section 12 of the Persons with Disabilities Act, which talks about access
to justice. “It says that the depositions should be in a format that is
accessible to a person with disabilities. If you interpret that for a
person who has a hearing disability, how will he or she know what is
happening in court? It has to be transcribed.”

Still, the question of affordability remained until Mistry discovered that
Parliament and Assembly proceedings are already transcribed. “The
technology [speech to text], the intent, the meaning — everything is there
a few buildings away [from the Supreme Court] at Parliament House.” In
fact, Mistry says, back in the 1970s, Parliament used to change
stenographers every five minutes so they did not lose concentration.

According to him, the benefits of legal transcription would be numerous:
there would be greater access to justice, better court discipline, better
record-keeping and better reporting on court proceedings, since reporters
would have access to the transcripts, as well as employment opportunities
for stenographers. He also wants law schools to adopt the same system in
moot courts, so the next generation of lawyers gets used to the system. “I
didn’t feel diffident in court knowing that transcription was on and I
don’t think any lawyer should,” Mistry says.

The first hearing of the case was held on May 3 and the next hearing is
scheduled for July 5. Meanwhile, the Supreme Court has asked the government
to respond to the requests for live streaming and legal transcription. On
his part, Mistry is confident the application will succeed since the
Attorney General and Jaisingh expressed their support in court.

You don’t have commonality like this in these matters. Usually, you will
have somebody opposing, somewhere,” Mistry says. “Of course, it will have
to start as a pilot project. Start with constitutional cases. Start with
final hearing. In sensitive cases, you can have transcripts but you don’t
have to give it out. All the systems are in place. In light of this, I
can’t see the government saying no. Now it is up to the judiciary.”

Inspirational Devika Malik

Speaking to Devika Malik, there is only one word that comes to mind,
inspirational.

Recently appointed to the position of focal point for people with
disabilities of the standing committee of the Office of Special Interest
Groups, Devika Malik was born a female with disability in India and this
has enabled her to have a sensitised world view. She had a case of
congenital hemiplegia (partial paralysis and weakness in left arm & left
leg) and her mother a paraplegic for the last 17 years; and being raised in
a family of Army Officers, these factors sensitized her towards the cause
of inclusive society & peace since a young age.

She recounts her greatest achievements to us and it goes without saying
that disability is NOT inability:

“I am an *International Para-athlete with* *3 medals at the IPC World
Athletics Grand Prix an*d *Psychological Counsellor* with a Masters in
Psychology from Delhi University. Combining my passion for inclusive sport
development & Peace, I am an active *contributor to the* *Olympic Truce
Peace Campaign* as well as an alumnus of the *Youth Leadership Program
conducted by the United Nations Office of Sport for Development &
Peace* *(UNOSDP)
in Tokyo*. On*International Youth Day 2014, I addressed a national
conference organized by PHD Chambers of Commerce*, expounding strategies
for Inclusive sport development.”

This was not where it stopped but she decided to start her own organisation:

“My mother and I started our *NGO, Wheeling Happiness *(
https://www.facebook.com/wheelinghappiness/) in July 2014, and one of our
main strategies is to *utilize sports for social development & emotional
well-being of people with disabilities*. I also provide free counselling
services to physically challenged persons from underprivileged backgrounds.
The foundation has conducted programs to promote an inclusive society, such
as, construction of ramps at railway stations, sensitizing road commuters
to follow traffic rules keeping visually and physically impaired
pedestrians in view, sponsoring slum children to experience adventure
sports and raising funds for artificial limbs for underprivileged users
etc. As the co-founder, I have also*represented the foundation at the
Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM) Malta, Youth Forum*. “

Greeted by PM Narendra Modi and Duke and Duchess of Cambridge in
appreciation of service to the community.

Receiving the Queen’s Young Leader Award for working towards emotional
well-being of Persons with Disabilities and their caregivers in India.

Her most recent recognition came from Her Majesty The Queen as she was
awarded the Queen’s Young Leader 2015 medal at Buckingham Palace and as a
QYL her work did not stop there. She tells us of her other commitments to
youth engagement and sports:

“My interview has also featured in the Queen’s 90th Birthday documentary –
‘Our Queen At Ninety’. I was invited to share my volunteer work experiences
with the *Duke and Duchess of Cambridge at British High Commissioner’s
residence* in Delhi. On 12th April 2016, the PM Narendra Modi hosted a
luncheon, where the *PM invited me to acknowledge my efforts* towards
inclusion & wellbeing of persons with disabilities. I’m an *Asian
Representative of the* *Commonwealth Youth Sport for Development & Peace
(CYSDP) Working Group*, consisting of a total of 12 individuals selected
from all 53 Commonwealth Nations. I also undertake counselling for
caregivers of people with disabilities and cancer patients. I am a firm
believer of *equality across the gender spectrum* and advocate for the
*feminist* movement, as the stereotypes patriarchy imposes are equally
harmful and constraining for both men & women.

Young Devika continues to advocate for inclusive societies and had the
privilege to deliver a TEDx Talk and also gave a talk at the *Commonwealth
Secretariat HQ in London*. Her work embodies SDG 10 – Equal Opportunities,
and she is an advocate of the *Accessible India Campaign.*
