[AI] Sad news
Friends I came to know yesterday that our friend Mr. Ram babu is no more. He was a sociologist and was a faculty in Tata Institute of Social Sciences, TISS Mumbai. He had been living with cancer since long which finally took a toll on him in May this year. He wrote in AI long ago, but was a sparing user of mobiles and computers, as advised by doctors. I had the honor of knowing him personally and hosting him at Nagpur for some programmes and interacting with him in TISS. May we be able to continue his legacy of academic persuit by the blind. 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.

Re: [AI] disablity coach missing in newly modified trains
Dear Ravi, I second your thoughts with regards to replies from certain members with their sarcastic remarks. We want equal opportunities in education, employment, property rights . In these important matters we want equality but at the same time we should not forget about our handicaps and it is here the govt should step with accessibility and reasonable accommodation so that we get a chance to compete with world on a equal footing. We really need such exclusive coaches for PwD and railways should not forget this in process of modernisation. Both Mumbai metro and Delhi metro have seats exclusively reserved for PwD in their coaches but during peak hours or sometimes otherwise these seats are occupied by normal passengers. You have to wait till their conscience wakes up to your physical requirements. Sometimes the normal passengers refuse to vacate.This could have been avoided by providing a separate coach for the PwD. In my opinion we can lodge a complaint with https://pgportal.gov.in and monitor the action status with help of RTI So please file the greviance with proper train numbers etc to PMO and Railway Ministry.This should be the first option. The next we can do is file a PIL through state legal services authority.I believe the advocate charges are nil or very less. Santosh On 10 Nov 2018 21:13, "Ravi N.

Re: [AI] disablity coach missing in newly modified trains
Hi my query may be silly, but I have it in my mind for a long time as I haven't travelled in the disabled coach... Is the disabled coach for reserved differently abled passengers or unreserved differently abled passengers? Is there any facility for differently abled passengers that makes the compartment accessible like wheel chair friendly or audio announcements of stations or any such ...? If the dept is opting for changes it could be fruitful if it is alloted for unreserved differently abled passengers and senior citizens who could not be able to rush in the midst of other passengers to catch a seat in the unreserved compartment...
