Re: [AI] query
If you want to reply or write in hindi do it. reading hindi is not an issue with screen reader instead it relates with tts. you can read hindi with e-speak with NVDA or jaws. you can also use google voice typing for hindi on android device. don't discourage hindi if anybody wish to write.

Re: [AI] Use of AIRA Glasses
I use them at the basic plan rate of $89 per month. It is fairly expensive given that they don't even roll over unused minutes. You can share the minutes among multiple users though, if you cannot use the full quota and that can help bring down the cost. -Manish -Original Message- From: AccessIndia On Behalf Of George Abraham Sent: Monday, August 13, 2018 9:43 PM To: 'AccessIndia: a list for discussing accessibility and issues concerning the disabled.'

Re: [AI] Use of AIRA Glasses
The key benefit is that it is a wearable vs a smartphone, so you don't have to worry as much about pointing your phone in a particular direction or somehow positioning it so that the volunteer can see what you want him to see. In terms of availability, Be my Eyes is actually much better than this-it's almost instantaneous now on Be My Eyes. It's useful for a variety of things, e.g. sorting mail or navigation help.

[AI] Report on Accessible currency notes
Hi! Sharing below the report submitted to the Delhi HC by the Amicus Curie regarding accessible currency. This report was submitted in the first week of April 2018. Subsequently, officials of the RBI have been travelling across the country meeting up with different stakeholder groups and taking suggestions. If you have any ideas that you might like to share, please feel free to write to me. Happy to share good and practical ideas with the court as well as RBI. IN THE HIGH COURT OF DELHI AT NEW DELHI WRIT PETITION(C ) NO.10727 OF 2017 IN THE MATTER OF : All India Confederation of the BlindVS. RBI & Anr. REPORT OF THE AMICI CURIE ON THE ISSUE OF ACCESSIBILITY OF VISUALLY IMPAIRED PERSONS TO THE INDIAN CURRENCY INTRODUCTION: That Writ petition C No.10727/2017 titled as All India Confederation of the Blind Vs. Reserve Bank of India & anr. was filed making the following prayers: A) issue a writ/ direction/ order in the nature of mandamus and/ or certiorari directing, commanding and requiring the Respondent no.'s 1 and 2 for ensuring/ changing/ modifying all new legal tender bank notes and coins currently in circulation to make them easily identifiable and differentiable for all visually impaired, i.e. blind and those with low vision.; and/ or B) issue a writ/ direction/ order in the nature of mandamus and/ or certiorari directing, commanding and requiring the Respondent no.'s 1 and 2 for withdrawing/ replacing all new legal tender bank notes and coins currently in circulation in a phase-wise, reasonable and time-bound manner by issuing fresh/ new legal tender bank notes and coins easily identifiable and differentiable for all visually impaired, i.e. blinds and those with low vision. Further, Writ Petition ( C) no.9728/2017 titled as Rohit Dandriyal & Ors. Vs. Reserve Bank of India & Anr. was filed making the following prayers: a) Direct the respondent No.1 for issue the new Rupee 50/- with identification mark for visually impaired persons; b) Direct the respondent No.2 for approve the new Rupees 50 which bearing the identification mark for visually impaired persons. c) Direct respondents to withdraw new 50/- rupee note currency without identification mark for visually impaired persons & also stop the printing of such currency bank note which is without identification mark for visually impaired persons. Thus, while the writ petition C no.10727/2017 covered the broader issue of the inclusion of features in bank notes and coins which enable the visually impaired person to identify currency of different denominations, writ petition (C) No.9728/2017 is restricted to the issue of identification of only 50 rupee bank note. Vide order dt.16.2.2018 the undersigned were appointed as amici curie to assist the court in both the petitions. Before making recommendations, it is appropriate to give a brief background of the genesis of the issue involved. Before demonetization, both bank notes and coins had features such as major difference in size with regard to bank notes of different denominations and difference in shapes and sizes with regard to coins of different denominations which enable visually impaired person to identify currencies of different denominations easily. However during the process of demonetization and thereater, RBI has issued new bank notes of Rs.10, 50, 200, 500 & 2000 which is in circulation in the economy of the country at present. These bank notes do not have features which could enable visually impaired persons to differentiate between the bank notes of different denominations. No doubt, there is a very little and insignificant difference in the size of each denomination of bank notes but i.e. so negligible that it is difficult to identify bank notes of different denominations by a visually impaired person. It is claimed that since Rs.50 note is having some embossed markings in the form of straight lines, the same meets the accessibility requirement of visually impaired person. However, it is not so. In the first place, the lines / markings cannot sustain for long and secondly, these markings have no relationship with the denomination of Rs.50 to enable visually impaired person to understand what it stands for. Further, for low vision persons, there is no change of colours in bank notes of different denominations which is essential for them to identify different denominations bank notes. A perusal of the affidavit filed by RBI reveals that RBI had consulted National Association for the Blind. However, there were various suggestions given by National Association for the Blind which were not taken into account by RBI while issuing bank notes. LEGAL POSITION That Section 12 (4)(a) of Rights of Persons With Disabilities Act 2016 which came into force w.e.f. April 2017, mandates the appropriate Govt. which include Central Govt. also to take steps to ensure that all their public documents are in accessible formats. Thus,
Re: [AI] Thailand for Rs.15750/-
Hello Mr. Sazid. Here's the reply: 1. Will you arrange visa and tickets for us (at our own cost, of course)? Visa is on arrival and costs 2000 BHT, roughly Rs. 4000. (We will help with the list of documents needed for the same). However, if you want you can apply for visa beforehand in Thai Embassy near you. It would cost lesser, if you get one in advance. 2. If yes, what would be the approximate cost? Air ticket cost will depend on the city you want to fly from. We can help you with this. You can write to us separately for the same. 3. How many members are you planning to take along on this trip? 12-15 is number of travellers we are looking at. Hope this helps. - Team Bat 9920058200 On Tue, 14 Aug 2018 15:33:31 +0530 sazid shaik wrote please tell this on this list so we can plan.

Re: [AI] google maps
Yes, announcing passing landmarks, saving a place and downloading off line maps needs to be accessible. Besides, some description of route preview, say turnings etc. also needs to be there. सादर / With thanks & Regards राजेश आसुदानी Rajesh Asudani सहायक महाप्रबन्धक AGM बाजार आसूचना ईकाई MIU भारतीय रिजर्व बैंक Reserve Bank of India नागपुर Nagpur 0712 2806846 President VIBEWA Co-Moderator VIB-India A-pilll = Action coupled with Positivity, Interest, Love, Logic and laughter. -Original Message- From: AccessIndia [mailto:accessindia-boun...@accessindia.org.in] On Behalf Of Ajay Minocha Sent: 13 August 2018 20:28 To: AccessIndia: a list for discussing accessibility and issues concerning the disabled. Subject: Re: [AI] google maps Hi Ma'am, Though I generally find maps quite accessible yet Fully agree with Sunil and Austin's suggestions. 1. Passing landmarks should be spoken, there should be a facility to turn them on / off as per user's requirement. 2. Downloading offline maps is not accessible at all, This used to be a boon during the good old nokia days when we used to put entire maps collection on our SD cards.
