[AI] An enquiry about signatures

[Sharad Philip]

Hi Access india list 

I am writing here to enquire about how my seniors and colleagues here have 
handled the issues related to signatures especially for banking concerns. I 
wanted to know if its just simpler to use the thumb impressions or some way of 
digital verification. Over the years my signature has not remained consistent 
worsening to a point that now  any 2 signatures appear different. 
Would it be advisable to just create a rubber stamp with my signature and use 
that - i ask  as it  has been quite frustrating to hear bank branch managers 
asking me to look at the screen and copy the signature or asking me to practise 
repeatedly till i get it right.  This is over and above providing identity 
documents such as Adhaar and PAN and passport. Parts of the process are more 
preposterous - signing within a box ! Signing so that half the signature comes 
over the photo and the other half on paper ! 
 
Why is a signature the only means of confirming something ?
Is there any way i could do this better ? Is there an accessible solution / 
workaround ? 
 
Are there any guidelines or advisories that will help me in this regard ? 
Sincerely
Sharad

Re: [AI] Disabled Cold Shouldered in Budget

[Sharad Philip]

https://www.cnbctv18.com/healthcare/highest-ever-health-budget-allocation-is-it-good-enough-8176211.htm
 

Here is a link to read more on the ludicrous budget - what a gimmick - 
underhanded too - ripping off the country saying 137% increase in the overall 
helathcare budget when most of it is to be one time spends.
And then there is the overall decline in total allocation to the health 
ministry.
Great news is that we have another fund to donate to - 
If you come across the details for the spending of the PMCARES fund please do 
let know 
When will we learn to call a spade a spade ?

Re: [AI] Disabled Cold Shouldered in Budget

[Sharad Philip]

Looks like its budget cuts everywhere meaningful 

Press Release
1 February 2021

Protest the 30% cut in allocation to ICDS-
AIFAWH 
ALL INDIA FEDERATION OF ANGANWADI WORKERS AND HELPERS


30% Cut in Budget allocation to ICDS when the malnutrition in the country is 
all time high
NO increase in wages of anganwadi workers and helpers 
in spite of the exemplary work to fight pandemic and malnutrition 
 
The Modi government has again made drastic cut in social sector expenditure in 
the budget 2021-22 at a time when it is utmost necessary to increase the 
allocation to the Centrally Sponsored Schemes which address malnutrition and 
health.
Budget allocation for Umbrella ICDS(Integrated Child Development Services 
Scheme) has been drastically cut down by 30% from the allocation made in the 
last budget. The budget estimate for Umbrella ICDS in budget 2020-21 was 
Rs.28557.38Cr, which is now reduced by Rs.Rs.8452.38Cr to Rs.20,105 Cr. 
Ironically the name of the scheme has been changed to ‘Saksham Anganwadi and 
Poshan 2.0’. 
 
This is when the recent National Family Health Survey( NFHS – 5) has shown an 
increase in malnutrition in the period 2014-19. the UNICEF has recently pointed 
out that our country will lose three lakh children under five years in the next 
six months, due to poverty, hunger and malnutrition if this issue is urgently 
addressed. This huge number of our children which is in addition to the nearly 
8.8 lakh under fives who die every year are pushed into such vulnerable 
position due to the lock down and closing of anganwadi centres due to lock 
down. Instead of strengthening the schemes for nutrition, health and education, 
the government is pushing for privatization and PPP model in these sectors.
 
In spite of the exemplary work done by the anganwadi workers and helpers along 
with other frontline workers like ASHA workers during the pandemic in fighting 
the pandemic as well as malnutrition, risking their lives the government has 
not considered even increasing their remuneration or assuring any kind of 
social security or pension to nearly one crore scheme workers like Anganwadi, 
ASHA and MDM workers, who are the grass root level workers delivering the 
essential services to the people. 
 
The budget which was full of rhetoric about the ‘atmanirbhar’ bharat and the $5 
trillion economy, has cut down the budget allocation for the Mid Day Meal 
Scheme by Rs.1400Cr and the allocation for MNREGA by 41% from the last years 
revised estimates. There is only a nominal increase in the allocation for 
National Health Mission. The statement of the finance minister that the Labour 
Codes will ensure universal social security and statutory minimum wage for all 
is totally untrue. The scheme workers are not even categorized as workers in 
the codes.
 
In spite of the big struggles by the peasantry and the working class, this 
budget again proved that Modi government is not ready to change its policies of 
selling the national assets, giving tax concessions to the corporates. The 
government is completely surrendering to the corporates and imposing slavery on 
the working class as well as the peasantry through the notorious farm acts and 
labour codes. 
 
AIFAWH call upon all the anganwadi workers and helpers to protest against the 
total neglect of the anganwadi workers and helpers in the central budget 
2021-22. AIFAWH calls upon all the scheme workers to intensify the struggles 
for recognition as workers, minimum wages and pension.

Those are terrifying projections - 300,000 children to die in 6 months ... 
i suppose more would come of this if all voices united  against the trifling of 
real life issues ...

Re: [AI] Info on a good electric shaver.

[Sharad Philip]

Hi 
My personal recommendation would be for the Braun cruiser - available on amazon 
and reasonably priced - under 4K i think .
It does not hurt when shaving and gives a very clean close shave better than 
any razor i have ever used. It also has a trimmer function but no heads can be 
attached- hence not ideal for styling a beard. Best used for a dry shave it 
only has one removable part and collects the hair within the blade head which 
then can be easily disposed. Recommend not going for it in stores as it was 
being sold at MRP of 7k nearly. It uses the same technology as the Series 7 or 
8 or 9 from Braun which are however priced around 40K! 
I have been using it for the last 2.5 years. 
Hope this helps 
Sincerely
Sharad

[AI] Query regarding online examinations for persons with visual impairments

[Sharad Philip]

Hi again Access Indians 

I have another query regarding how persons with Visual impairment are giving 
online exams > are scribes being allowed ? Are any challenges being faced with 
regard to the candidate sending in typed responses over some designated portals 
?
Has anyone had any experience with the online examinations system at the NLSIu 
? 
Sincere thanks 
Sharad

[AI] Query regarding using a touchscreen laptop

[Sharad Philip]

Hey there AI listers 
Happy new year 
Have a query - how advisable would it be for me a person with low vision to use 
a touchscreen laptop like the Surface pro ? Of course i would need to use it 
with a screen reader like NvdA or JAWS
I use a MacBook currently  with both keyboard and mouse focus - would i be able 
to get the same user experience on a windows based platform with NVDA / JAWS ? 
The reason for me to migrate from iOS to Windows is that i am not able to 
complete a lot of tasks such as documents editing, referencing etc ..
Eager to know your opinions and advice 
Sincere thank 
Sharad

Re: [AI] Tax exemption on Conveyance allowance of INR 3200/- per month for VI people

[Sharad Philip]

Hi there 
Just wanted a clarification here .
Is this deduction over and above the standard deduction of INR 4 that is 
allowed for everyone ? It would be good if it were . My tax consultant is 
saying that this deduction is subsumed under the standard deduction . Also , 
sir I wanted to know if I have taken care of my father as he had a stroke and 
incurrred expenses , would that also be used for exemption over and above the 
INR 125000 i am claiming ?
Looking forward to your response 
Sincere and warm regards ,

[AI] Seeking advice on a cheap accessible phone

[Sharad Philip]

Hi therelist 
I have a query to which i would really appreciate your inputs . I am looking 
for a cheap accessible phone for using my duty cell number . One of the 
requirements is that i cannot cut the SIM - it has to be the original size as 
issued by BSNL . I am looking to input only a small cost maybe upto INR 5000 . 
Is there any accessible phone that I could get within this limit that would not 
warrant cutting the SIM to micro or Nano size ? Touchscreen or keypad both 
would do for me . Accessibility is the key feature i m looking for .. 

Sincere thanks and regards 

Sharad 


Dr Sharad Philip

Re: [AI] Visually impaired can see now!

[Sharad Philip]

Dear sir 
 Just to highlight a concern here - this is not just a difficulty in 
articulatio . One list member expressed grief over his impairment being 
something he was fed up with . To offer a glimmer of hope and then shut light 
is worse still . The information conveyed over the series of disjointed emails 
spaced over 3 days cold have been done in a single email comprehensively . 
Giving partial information with overreaching subject / tag lines is also not 
sensitive and in keeping with propriety . 
Anyhow , i think list members would have by now a sense of what is going on . 

The mainstream medical scientists would not have to research retinal surgeries 
for implanting electrodes as they are doing with the bionic eyes across 3 
centres over 2 continents if there was a remedy possible with some breathing 
exercises and some other methods . 

Wishing you well , 

Regards 


Sharad

Re: [AI] Sensory substitution in blind?

[Sharad Philip]

Dear sir 
I have been following this thread for the past few days . Being a medical 
doctor by training , i feel i should weigh in here and clarify some things you 
are saying here . 

Firstly , mainstream medical scientists as you call them are not a vile 
community that is looking out for personal commercial interests . Those in 
research and in clinical practice rarely overlap .anyhow , no one whether as a 
person or a community is specifically interested in benefiting from another 
human being s suffering or disability . As and when avenues of treatment / 
paliation have come up they have been brought into clinical practice after 
rigorous examinations by the scientific method . The sole aim for such an 
exercise is to ensure replicability of results . It a little bit more 
complicated than saying a pre and post comparison . There needs to be an 
understanding of why anything works , for whom it works , for those it did not 
work for why did not , what are the best parameters and qualifying situations , 
whether there are any ill effects for those healthy , any ill effects for those 
in need of the intervention , is there a way to predict who would benefit and 
who would not , and many other things . This is possible when the intervention 
is rooted in some physiological , pharmacological , biochemical basis . 

In the context of what is being discussed here , there is no physiological or 
any other scientific basis . The Midbrain is actually a part of the brain that 
controls a lot of vital functions such as respiration , body temperature etc 
amongst others . Some nerve fibers from the processing centres for vision do 
pass through this area . These also control some basic pursuit movements of the 
eye . Apart from this there also other cranial nerves that mediate taste , 
touch , and the movements of face and neck muscles . However in the MIDBRAIN 
activation programs that are being discussed here , the midbrain referred to i 
s something in between the right and the left !! 

The only thing between the right and left hemispheres of the Brain is the 
connection system called the corpus callosum . There is no separate right and 
left Brain as is commonly referred to in these writings ! All right handed 
individuals are left dominant - a terminology used to refer to the fact that 
these people have their speech areas in the left hemispheres . Those left 
handed are more than 90% left dominant while a few are right dominant . This 
just implies that certain functions are subserved by certain areas . . Being 
right brained and left brained is something not based in neuroscience . Then 
where would the midbrain be is what should be asked ! 

If the intervention works to reduce the impairment , i am happy as any of you 
would be but i would still want to know how it does . Unlike common belief , 
ill effects also plague any intervention - whether psychological , or any 
activation whatsoever . It is just that they are not recognised or identified . 
It would only be possible to identify such things in controlled studies . But 
alas , there is little scope for that to happen . An y such intervention when 
conducted by persons with specific training weds to weed out subjectiity 
minimise chance results and identify placebo effects . Such a controlled 
situation is rarely the case . 

Anyhow this is all i wanted to say and i hope it helped . With best regards 

Sharad

Re: [AI] Fwd: Press statement of our network reg Aadhar

[Sharad Philip]

Hi 
It’s not that there is something wrong with the concept . It’s a lot to do with 
execution and the maintenance . Personally , not a week has gone by for 
sometime without at least a couple of clients telling me of how they have been 
deprived of their privileges because of the lack of a card above and beyond 
their disability certificates that will ensure them the basic paltry amenities 
their elected govt has slated for them . Disability pensions have been 
discontinued because the person with intellectual disability is unable to look 
into the Iris scanner long enough for the photo to be taken . I assume the 
light is hurtful to him and the attitude of the official is more hurtful to the 
family . The repeated subjection of such persons with disability to something 
unpleasant all to access basic rights in terms of travel finance etc is 
tantamount to discrimination to put it mildly . The PWDs with clawed fingers 
find it difficult to place their prints because of the bony deformities but 
officials think it is because they are not pressing hard enough . I cannot even 
blame the officials solely either . One must hold the wise people who lack the 
foresight to see and the flixibility to alter their project . At the end of the 
day its another parallel identification issued by the govt . but making it 
mandatory for dispersal of benefits without securing the meagre provisions of 
the most disadvantaged sections of society is the gravest injustice . 
It’s a barrier for PMIs and PWIDs . It adds to the stigma and the 
discrimination . There is no oversight of the third party organisations / 
players regarding what and who they have issued identification . Previously , 
persons with no formal education would put their prints using a stamp pad now 
they have to do so without one . That i suppose is the biggest difference this 
will make for some . In my opinion , the thousands of crores could have been 
put to so much better use . There is none of the purported benefits of 
empowerment and streamlining of services  . 
It’s a sad state of affairs and i hope to God i am not counted amongst 
complaining intellectuals . That’s when i would be dismissed with my views 
I have just ranted out of my experience working with clients in mental health 
.i do not mean to offend anyone . 
Sharad

[AI] hey need some guidance and advice

i have Macbook and use the voice over to my advantage somewhat .
however , i have not been able to achieve proficiency in making presentations , 
preparing manuscripts and documents with citations or using statistical 
software such as SPSS or even MS Excel . 
this is after quite some time at these tasks .
i would like to alter this and wondered if you could help me answer the 
following queries so that i can move forward 

1 for these requirements of making ppts and writing up article manuscripts and 
using statistical softwares such as “R” would it be wiser to switch over to a 
windows based platform ?

wisdom say ? 
4  what kind of citation managing softwares are accessible with JAWS and NVDA ? 
5 do you know of any way i can pick up and  hone my skills using these

[AI] hi there ... just a share about fitness

[Sharad Philip]

hi there list members 
greetings from bangalore 
i am writing this mail in to the list asking for your opinion regarding health 
and fitness 
i had an interesting conversation with Mr Rishabh who founded the Cure Fit 
organisation and also runs the Cult Fit fitness centres . i had contacted their 
organisation (he...@cure.fit ) to ask about how they 
could accommodate me as a visually impaired person pursuing fitness . 
i found him to be very keen about  the idea and amenable to working with 
suggestions  . he says he would like to develop services for people with any 
kinds  of impairment . he was envisaging training and sensitising  his trainers 
towards being able to work out with people with special needs . he was wanting 
to develop a special module and separate slots . he is also open to the idea of 
organising a pick up and drop service for those who need it and is also 
considering longer extended trial periods so that decisions need be taken only 
after one is comfortable with the concept . 
he asked me how many people with visual impairment would be interested
 . 
hence , i am putting this out here for the list members . Rishabh says he can 
provide these services in both Bangalore and Delhi . 
if this is something that you are looking for / interested in  , i request you 
to please email them on - he...@cure.fit   
i have also asked him to explore the feasibility and pragmatics of allowing a 
people with visual impairment to work out alongside the regulars . i will be 
going to meet him one of these days . their concerns are regarding safety 
primarily and the requirement for extra attention from trainers . it will be 
good to know some numbers of at least those interested .
hope you are all well 
sincerely 
sharad

i'm actually hoping that since apple is very blind friendly, we might
be able to use logic on a mack with some result. but i haven't gotten
around to trying it. will explore that possibility and get back to u

in any case if your not doing any serious professional editing, you

 Hello,
 Instead of writing to CCPD, it would be better to get interim relief
 from the concerned high court by filing the writ petition.
 The 30th   march is quite near, yet you have all the time to file
 complaint with higher authorities and issueing the legal notice
 thereafter. Courts are very reluctant to issue interim relief if you
 have not exhausted all the remedies before filing the writ . Please
 remember that the Writ under art 226 is the last recourse to seek the
 justice.

 I have got some contacts in Calcutta, if you want I can check if they
 can take up this case.
