Dear Dipendra
I checked again. When you click on the link as soon as you open the 
book, it continues to throw the same error. However, I pressed now F6 
this time and it opened normally.

Dear Harish

I have not been able to replicate your problem. Downloading and playback of
Movie Dangal from Sugamya Pustakalaya is working well on my computer.

We will be in touch on phone off-list to see why this is happening with you.

Thanks

Hello Aakash

You can register for another secondary library. You can be a member
of more than one libraries on Sugamya Pustakalaya.

The main function is to get offline services. Example, you can
request for a book to be sent to you on a physical media. Your
offline request goes to the library that you have chosen.

Member of any library will have access to all books available on
Sugamya Pustakalaya. You are not restricted to books of any single

library.

Each library is free to have their own membership fee and rules.
Thus, which ever library you choose may have their own terms and
conditions for membership.

You can follow-up with Saksham for library approvals etc. at
libr...@saksham.org
   I am copying this mail to Abdul at Saksham regarding our pending
membership request.

Thanks
Dipendra

hi Akash,
hope you are doing good.

as for as my concern,  I think, you cant change your local library
preference from the sugamya pusthakalaya.
but, if the saksham does not aproved your documents with the member
ship which you requested, then you can change your preference by
requesting with some other libraries.

will we only get the titles of our chosen library only?

Hi all.
Looks like the list has moved to a new home and some people who had
unsubscribed have been subscribed again. I have no complaints even though I
am one of them. 
It is easy to complain but it is very hard to manage such a vast list. I
want to say that Harish Kotian and whoever is assisting him in managing the
list, deserve many congratulations and gratitude for doing this work. 

Thank you Harish.
And may be someone can post guidelines for unsubscribing or managing their

There is no way to verify if the entrance is the same difficulty level as was 
given to other candidates. This candidate also gets some extra days to prepare 
which is also unfair on other candidates, and more so if some of the other 
candidates are in the  reserved for PH category.

Sorry George. You  were subjected to an unkind message. You are right. If DU 
goes to Supreme court challenging this High Court verdict, I am sure DU is 
going to win the case. Whatever happened with this student was unfortunate, but 
asking DU to hold the test again is unprecedented. 
The other thing I noticed in the verdict was a complete ignorance about the 
civic sense. No matter how much  you punish the government agencies, if the 
society is not going to change, people with disabilities can not avoid 
discrimination. It was not a government agency that refused to open that 
reserved coach door. 
I hope there is no other disabled who took that test and was found qualified. 
It will be unfair on him/her if he/she passed on the original test but is not 
selected because someone else who got some extra days to prepare does get 
through.

Is it not a fact that a non-disabled person can make last minute adjustments
like boarding another compartment, checking with the other door etc.
much more easily than a blind person?  Last minute alternative
transport arrangements like taking road transport, break journeys etc
are also easy for non-disabled.
I'm not commenting on the court's intervention.  But accessing public
transport is not same for disabled and non-disabled!

Re: [Ai] Delhi HC observed: Differently-abled don’t have substantive equality

2017-08-25 Thread George Abraham via Ai
The message is simple. Would the court take a similar stand if the person who 
missed the exam was not blind. Further the intervention of the court in this 
particular case reflects a clear societal mindset.

 

I hope I am clear with my post this time.

As far as I know, majority of examination conducting agencies clearily 
stipulate in the advertisements that the agencies will not be responsible if 
candidates miss the exams at any cost and in any circumstances. I don't know 
whether the DU's call for application had this clause or not.

But the real question is whether the court and the people would respond the 
same way if the candidate who missed the interview/exam was a nondisabled

 I am sure hundreds of people miss important exams/interviews etc. due to break
