[AI] regarding committee on national policy on persons with disabilities
Dear friends! It is indeed a matter of concern that the work of a committee constituted for the purpose of putting together a draft of a revised national policy on persons with disabilities has either not been moving at all, or is moving at a snail's pace. The said committee was constituted way back on the twelvth of July 2018; and, I understand most of us are not even aware of the progress it has made so far in carrying out its mandate of evolving a revised draft. I am pasting below the relevant notification issued by the concerned Department of the Ministry of Social Justice and empowerment, govt. of India for this purpose for your information.

[AI] Good and bad news on accessible settop boxes
All Forwarding mail from Prashant which did not make to the list. Harish. Quoting: From: Prashant Ranjan Verma Sent: Saturday, October 26, 2019 4:53 PM To: 'AccessIndia: a list for discussing accessibility and issues concerning the disabled.' Subject: TV and set top box accessibility: Good and bad news dDpear all, As per my experience, the accessibility with Talkback has reduced in the newer Airtel Xstream android set top box. In the home screen now Talkback is not reading the app names. When TV channels are changed, it is possible to read out the current and next program names with details but the channel name is not read out. If anyone has a better experience with this box then please let me know. The good thing is that even in Android TV OS there is a shortcut to switch off and switch on Talkback. If the Accessibility Services Suite is updated, then you will find Accessibility shortcut in Settings > Accessibility. Here choose Talkback. At the same location you will see the keys to be pressed from the remote. In Airtel Zstream I can press and hold up and down volume keys to switch off and switch on Talkback. In Sony Smart TV I am able to do the same by pressing and holding the mute key. Pranay, Ketan, I hope you have either figured this out or you are reading this. Best wishes for Diwali.

[AI] HT report of interest: Under no circumstances will any vacancy for Divyangjan be filled by any other categories, says Railway Ministry
A day after the sit-in-protest at Delhi’s Mandi House by the persons with benchmark disabilities (PwBD) over alleged irregularities in railway recruitment exams, the Indian Railways on Monday assured that candidates would be appointed on merit. https://www.hindustantimes.com/education/committed-to-recruit-divyangjan-against-pwbd-quota-says-railways/story-xVAiXMYMNmqxn3V5wXzbaO.html The protests began over Railway Recruitment Board (RRB) Group D jobs in 2018. Several ‘Divyangjan’ (differently abled) students have been protesting since October 23 citing irregularities in the filling up of posts reserved for PwBD in the recent Level-1 recruitment exercise. Indian Railways had issued a centralized recruitment notification in February 2018 for around 63,000 posts. The notification also included posts for persons with benchmark disabilities (PwBD). “The qualified PwBD candidates would be appointed as per their merit/turn in their respective Railway zones as per vacancies notified for the different classes of Divyangjan. Any unfilled vacancies would not be filled by other non-PwBD candidates,” the railway ministry in a statement. Based on the provisions of the revised PwBD Act that mandated 4% reservation for PwBD categories (including newly introduced multi disability category), an additional window was notified for candidates to apply. Followed by this a clear 1% distribution of vacancies for each of the four PwBD categories for the recruitment exercise was made increasing the total number of vacancies reserved for PwBD to around 2500, according to the Indian Railways. The protesters had filed a complaint before the Court of Chief Commissioner For Persons With Disabilities (Divyangjan) about this revision in the vacancy percentage and specific grievances of some Divyangjan candidates in some railway zones as regards communication on qualifying marks and calling for document verification “A detailed meeting with representatives of the protesters with senior Railway Board officers was also held in the office of Secretary, Ministry of Social Justice on October 24, to understand the grievances, explain the railways’ position and actions taken, and assure the protesters that all grievances would be examined and those genuine addressed in a time-bound manner,” the ministry said. The ministry also said the recruitment process was still underway and more PwBD candidates, would come up for appointment in the coming weeks. “Under no circumstances will any vacancy for Divyangjan be filled by any other categories. In certain circumstances, where the vacancies of PwBDs are not filled up, the same is carried forward to the next recruitment cycle/notification,” the ministry added. -- सादर/ Regards अविनाश शाही/ Avinash Shahi सहायक/ Assistant मानव संसाधन प्रबंध विभाग/ Human Resource Management Department भारतीय रिजर्व बैंक/ Reserve Bank of India लखनऊ क्षेत्रीय कार्यालय/Lucknow RO विस्तार/ Extension: 2232 Search for old postings at: http://www.mail-archive.com/accessindia@accessindia.org.in/ To unsubscribe send a message to accessindia-requ...@accessindia.org.in with the subject unsubscribe.
