ALL WELL WISHERS MAY LIKE TO SEE HOW AGED Persons With Disability are TREATED:-   Copy to all concerned for information in continuation of all earlier mails

ALTHOUGH PRIME MINISTER & PRESIDENT OF INDIA EXPRESSED THEIR INSTRUCTIONS, INTENTION & DIRECTIVE TO THE NATION AT DIFFERENT OFFICIAL PLATFORM FROM TIME TO TIME THAT CASES OF PERSONS WITH DISADILITY BE DEALT WITH SYMPATHICALLY FOR BETTERMENT BUT  THE OUTCOME OF A CASE MAY PLEASE BE SEEN FOR BETTER APPRECIATION. THIS CASE WAS INITIATED IN NOVEMBER'2012 WITH STATE BANK OF INDIA AND WITH RESERVE BANK OF INDIA FROM JULY 2013. UNFORTUNATELY IT MAY BE SEEN THAT NITHER SBI NOR RBI HAVE ANY SYMPATHY, CONSIDERATION, NO SCHEME MADE FOR PERSONS WITH DISABILITY NOW STARTED DESHOULDERING RESPONSIBILITY TO EACH OTHER.
NOW LET ALL OF US WAIT & SEE HOW MANY DAYS, MOTHS & YEARS WILL BE REQUIRED BY SRI. C. RANGANI OF RBI csreerangini@rbi.org.in TO HAVE A SIMPLE ANWER FOR SBI DATED 29-08-2014. NEED NOT HESITATE IN CASE OF DISABILITY TO HELP AN AGED DISABLED PERSON NARRATED AT ABOVE. A simple confirmation in this respect is solicited. It is however NOTED that BANKs are very much interested to provide loans on interest @ 10% & below up to Rs 25 lks to the elite class of society for purchase of Cars or House building  where as charging highest interest @ 14.75% for Pension loan of Rs.1.5 lks to an Old Aged CVC, Paralyzed Disabled, can’t move outside without escorts & cannot earn. Is this not a nice way of implementing Government intention towards PWDs?     Namaskaram,

Is this a fair attitude?

Sub: Provisions to be made for Aged Disabled Persons can't move out side ignored so far..

Ref:  Proposal in connection with above of Sri.Chinmay Kar dated 31.07.2011 (See attachment placed below for ready reference)

Kindly refer to above proposal submitted nearly 2 years back followed by reminders from different persons of the society. Incidentally it is to mention that a serious issue has come up for which Old Aged Disabled Persons are facing insecurity & unsafe for the under mentioned reasons.  
 “Under compelled circumstance whenever an aged disabled person has to sell out or purchase a piece of land or property some local boy’s charges heavy amount of donation to be paid for their club, festival, mandir etc. These boy’s, persons do not consider the capacity of the PWD to bear such donation amount.
Solution suggested: - Any type of demand for donation from a Senior Citizen Extreme Disabled Person will be treated as punishable offence and will have to be taken up by Police in terms of legal provision”.

Hope Government of India considering the factual position that there exist no rules to safeguard the interest of Old Aged Disabled Person will gear up administrative process to implement of the proposal as immediately as possible. Thanking you,

The following are submitted for your kind perusal and necessary action for its implementation as early as possible in the interest of old aged disabled persons cannot move out side with out an escort. So far no Relaxations, Exemptions or any special provisions made or exist for old aged disabled persons cannot move out side. Hope you will please needful Namaskar… Chinmay kar 31-07-2011

Exemptions, Relaxations & some special provisions required for Old Aged Disabled persons to ease their lives (With out any type of Financial involvement) for remaining days 

(1). Normally old aged disabled persons & those cannot move out side for any purpose had to lead balance life with out accompanied by his sons / daughters for some reasons or other. Naturally these persons had to arrange, clear up / disputes if any related to payment of Electric Bills, Telephone Bills, Income Tax, Bank affairs, Corporation Building Tax, Booking & related works for domestic L.P. Gas etc.  It becomes extremely difficult for a disabled person who cannot move out side to attend each & every time to get their requirements. Now a day, it is seen that in each and every matters there exist some disputes which can be settled by personal attendance only. To avoid difficulties by Aged PWDs including those cannot move out side it is proposed to introduce a devise so that OADs can get some relief to carry on an in cumbrance free life.

Relaxation, Exemptios & Spl. provisions rules urged for in respect of constraints:-

“All offices situated in the state of West Bengal deals with issues mentioned at above (Yellow hatched portion) should open a special counter “Help counter for Sr.Citizen, Disabled who cannot move” to entertain requisitions, complains, requests made by the consumer Sr.Citizen, Disabled cannot move out side either through letters or by e-mails and issue receipts, confirm through e-mails. Compliance be made on requisitions immediately and others settled with in 30 days from date of receipt and a compliance Report should be reported to nominated officer of the Govt. nodal officer for the purpose having magisterial powers to take necessary actions against defaulters.” 

(2). Old Aged Disabled persons those cannot move out side had to call mechanics for various repair, replacement jobs for, T.V, CPU, Water pipe connection etc. As the OAD persons are normally very week individuals neither can run after the mechanic nor can argue for rates elements strongly for obvious reasons had to depend fully on mechanic (most of them are unknown).  In most of the cases it is seen that mechanic takes away the defective elements for carrying out necessary repair works at his work shop but while returning the same replaces the defective elements with a substandard one / unusable elements. Thus OADs are cheated in almost every area. Very recently one computer mechanic taken away my CPU for some repair works but returned me with duly replacing my hard disk with another hard disk of other brand, completely a dead one. The matter was widely brought to the notice of all concerned through different global web site for general awareness. However to tune down reoccurrence of such incidents it is proposed to introduce a positive action lines in terms of lawful provision:-

“Fraud / cheating case made to Old Aged Disabled persons who cannot move out side should be reported to Supdt. of Police of the concerned district by letters or e-mails. On receipt of complains from OAD the concerned S.P will conduct suitable enquiry and take necessary actions as per prevailing rules and report compliance with in 30 days to the nominated officer of the Govt. nodal officer for the purpose having magisterial powers to take necessary actions against defaulters.” 
.

(3). Old aged disabled persons those cannot move out side with out an escort had to depend on available relatives in all respects even for very small necessities. As a result there of some relatives creates undue pressure / threats on the aged disabled person to agree signing of deeds / documents with regard to land, property and assets belonging to OAD in such a way which is accordance with the desire of OAD. Only just because OAD is a physically week person had to depend on them for every purpose & no legal protection is available had no other way but to digest unwanted out come. To tune down such tendency the following is suggested for inclusion at Govt. orders.- 

“Whenever an Old Aged Disabled person is required to execute a deed or document in respect of Land, Property and Assets belonging to him the same can be can be acted upon only after certification by a 1st Class Magistrate to the effect that the deed has been signed by concerned OAD with full consent and not under threat or pressure by any one. Unless such a certificate is issued by 1st Class Magistrate no executed deed of an OAD person will be treated as valid for enactment.” 

(4). Old Aged Disabled Persons who cannot move out side with out an escort are required to attend office (even such directives are issued by the lowest person of an office) to get their documents, receipts, submission of applications, consent letters etc. It is very much difficult for an OAD can’t move out side to attend an office normally situated at thickly populated CBD area but these can be done by authorization, by e-governance or by deputing special messenger to OAD comfortably. A suitable Exemption orders in this respect on the following lines may be issued for the convenience of Old Aged Disabled Persons who cannot move out side for any purpose.

“It is hereby notified that that Old Aged Disabled Persons who cannot move out side with out an escort are Exempted to attend all offices situated in the state of West Bengal for getting their works done. Their cases be settled either utilizing e-governance system or by deputing special messenger to OAD. Deviations if any should be brought to the notice to the nominated officer of the Govt. nodal officer for the purpose having magisterial powers to take necessary actions against defaulters.” 

Introduction of above said suggestions will not involve any financial implications on the Government authority. OADs should invariably mention at their applications “CASE OF SR. CITIZEN DISABLED CANNOT MOVE OUT SIDE” to get the proposed facility provided by Government. Government Doctors certificate to the effect that “the disabled person cannot move with out an escort” is obtained from a Government Doctor and produced whenever it is called for by any competent authority.

So far there exist no Relaxations, Exemptions or any special provisions made for Old Aged Disabled Persons cannot move out side wit out an escort for any purpose and as such the suggestions made above will render some relief to OAD persons. Hope Government at appropriate level will not hesitate to implement the above suggestions for betterment to aged disabled persons so long neglected, ignored by all. Thank you.

ACTIVITY FOR BETTERMENT TO PERSONS WITH DISABILITY?


Disabler's Desk - I am a Retd.  Sr. Citizen (68yrs), Hemaparasis Disabled (60%), right side of body fully paralyzed, cannot move out side with out an escort but can only operate computer / internet with unusual left hand to communicate rest part of world especially in connection with social welfare works for betterment to old age disability and disabled persons
[A CASE OF SR.CITIZEN, PARALYZED DISABLED, CANNOT MOVE OUT SIDE W/O ESCORT & fully dependent on e-governance system]
 ********************************************************   
Dr. Manmohan Singh,
Prime Minister of India.
Thro: Sri. P.V.Narayanswami,
MoS to PMO,
New Delhi, India

Mahamannya Pradhanmantriji,

                              Sub: Special attention needed for Aged Disabled Persons-
                                       So far neglected by all in all respect. 

This is a submission to our beloved Prime Minister, Manmohanji that he will kindly spare 10 minutes and read this article as a simple Sr.Citizen of the country to realize the actual status / position of Persons With Disability and how they are treated. Since practically nothing has been done for betterment of aged PWDs you may kindly like to take some remedial actions / actions on some suggestions made available to your government for implementation. Some example of non cooperation, neglect, ignore, non adherences to instructions, guidance given by POI & PM may kindly be seen for further necessary action from your end at the earliest possible.

1.     RAILWAY’S ACTIVITY
As the undersigned is a retired, paralyzed disabled cannot move without an escort made an appeal to railways since 07.06.2009 to allow my attendant / escort on railway pass to accompany me in coach I travel. As per normal practice attendant gets accommodation some 4/5 coaches away from me and thus of no use.  More than 3 years gone, 138 reminders have been issued but railways did not response, probably railway administrators do feel it below dignity to response to a Sr.Citizen, Paralyzed Disabled. Copy of reminders available with PMO may kindly be seen.
2.     STATE BANK OF INDIA’S ASSURANCE FOR PWDS?
I was sanctioned a pension loan of Rs.1.5 lks towards marriage of my younger daughter in June’2010. EMI @ 533/-, Interest element @ 14.75%. Since market price has gone up considerably, become unbearable for this poor disabled pensioner, to tune down the highest interest element a request was made to SBI authority to reduce higher rate of interest of 14.75% to 8 or 9%. Initially SBI turned down the request made and declared boldly that they do not have any scheme for Disabled Persons & on some flimsy grounds which was objected, clarified and resubmitted to Chairman / SBI for consideration and justice. SBI authority assured they ensure justice for Persons with Disability. Case now rest with Chairman / SBI for his consideration. Simple prayer to allow Disablers escort yet to be allowed but railways have arranged free charity distribution of costly railway passes to various persons of the society having no connection with railways or railway works.
3.     ACTIVITY OF COMMISSIONER DISABILITY / WEST BENGAL
Considering financial constraints of this poor pensioner, paralyzed disabled who cannot move out side without an escort but can use computer with unusual left hand towards social welfare works for betterment to aged disabled persons, Governor, West Bengal Sri. Gopal Kr.Gandhi (2009) and Social Justice & Empowerment Ministry recommended to provide me a computer for my use. SJE’s Proposal case bearing No. Case No. 48/1141/09-10 shuttled between Delhi and Kolkata over a period of 3 years now resting with Commissioner Disability / West Bengal / Kolkata. Practically no useful purpose served to a PWD like me even though Governor and SJE Ministry recommended. What has happened to the funds made available to MPs towards requirements of PWDs. Correspondences entered into by Commissioner Disability / Kolkata to utilize MP’s fund but stopped chasing. Thus nothing has been done for PWD.
4.     SOME SUGESSIONS GIVEN FOR RAILWAYS & ROADS
     IMPLEMENTATION FRIENDLY TO PWDS
    
    “MORE SUGGESTIONS - USEFUL TO AGED & DISABLED PERSONS in railways (India)
dated 02-02-2010 was sent to railways for implementation. Only GM / W.Rly informed that they will examine and do needful. Suggestions made are very useful and friendly to PWDS. Till date not fully implemented.
     5.  SJE COULD NOT SAY IF EXEMPTIOS, RELAXATIONS OR ANY PROVISION EXIST FOR OLD AGED DISABLED PERSONS.
Ministry of Social Justice & Empowerment, Govt. of India was requested to let me know whether there exists any rules framed for old aged disabled persons allowing exemptions, relaxations special provisions (other than financial aspects) made for these victims so that they can get their works done early in appreciable manner on humanitarian grounds. Sorry to inform that SJE till date could not reply or able to clarify the correct position. Exact reason for silence is there exist no exemption, relaxation or special provision for old aged disabled persons. Incidentally Secretary UN Org (Disabled) on being referred on the similar line has informed vide e-mail dated 02.04.2009 “Please see our website for more information on the Convention on the Rights
of Persons with Disabilities, which is a legally binding treaty on Governments.. Also,
India has ratified the Convention on 1 October 2007"   SJE was requested to let me know whether any directive has been issued by Govt. of India based on Secretary UN Org (Disabled)
It may be seen from above that nothing has been done for betterment for old aged Disabled Persons and as such it is requested to kindly consider issuing suitable instruction to an active secretary to look into the subject issue and take suitable actions so that old aged disabled persons are benefited. Thanking you.

Sr.Citien, Extreme Disabled / Disability persons at the fag end of their life for due consideration as a token of cognition of services rendered appreciated by Railways through 17 awards. I am well aware that existing rules does not cater such provision but rules are made by human being & not by Lord God or treated as Bible, necessity, justification demands change, amend consideration on humanitarian reasons. Hope Government ofIndia acting through the Railway Ministry will not debar this aged couple in performing their religious intentions already narrated before your predecessors. In this respect it will not be out of place to mention that expenditure likely to be incurred in allowing prayed issue will be absolutely negligible from finance point of view and as such there should be no reason to hold on. Incidentally with an intention to visit Ma Tara Temple at Tara pith, Kamrup Kamakhya at Gauhati, Tirupati Devasthanam, Hardwar etc to offer Puja for betterment of all of us submitted pass application to GM / M.Rly / Kolkata during past three years.  Sorry till date since no directive issued from RailBoard’s office, escort could not be included in pass by concerned GM. All religious programmed made had to be cancelled on account of railways. Thus continuously debarred to perform religious obligations at the fag end of life which is virtually my constitutional right. Kind attention is also invited toDeclaration on the Rights of Disabled Persons Proclaimed by General Assembly resolution 3447 (XXX) of 9 December 1975especially matters pertaining to Differential Treatment to a PERSON WITH DISABILITY. Hope you will be kind enough to study the entire situation & issue suitable instructions as prayed for to the concerned GM / M.Rly /Kolkata., copy to undersigned as immediately as possible and oblige. Kindly don’t hesitate to tell your constraints if any. Escort will be chosen by PWD himself. Incidentally it is mentioned that the delay resulted deterioration of my disability which may kindly be noted,
Namaskaram,

REMINDER- 136- Dated. 18-12-2012
Since= 07-06-2009         [Silence by Railways  for 2188 Days]
Ref: 136 Reminders
Priya Mahoday,

                                A very simple prayer made above on necessity & Humanity ground by a Retd. Disabled, Sr.Citizen of India, Humanitarian prayers made through 136 letters / reminders may please be seen.  Every appeal cum reminders is self explanatory. Railway did not acknowledge receipt nor a response made so far. Railways cannot deny receipt of136 letters / reminders mail from me
                               Since the undersigned, a paralyzed Disabled (entire right side of the body paralyzed) can’t move without an escort certified by a CMS of Railway Hospital submitted an appeal to highest authority of railways to allow his attendant / escort to travel in the same coach with me on the pass granted to me as per prevailing rules. Normally an attendant / escort has to travel at general sleeper coach 5 / 6 coaches away from the coach traveled by the pass holder and as such does not helpful to a Disabled like the undersigned.
                                 Situation being as mentioned above do our respected Chairman Sahab can deny that:-
1)    By way of remaining silent for 2188+ days, even after issue of 136 letters/reminders tantamount to a Neglect / Ignore / insult made to a Senior Citizen, Paralyzed Disabled, can’t move without an escort, made by railway authority?
2)    By way of remaining silent over three years from the date of receipt of 1st appeal made on 07-06-2009 allowed this physically disabled person (68 yrs) deteriorating physical handicapped ness to further extent. Railways silence caused my deterioration condition of Disability further which could have been avoided provided Railways at the initial stage of my appeal communicated the Disability of Railways to help / accept the simple prayer of a Senior Citizen, Paralyzed Disabled, who can’t move without an escort. Hence Railway is totally responsible for the damage done to a Disabled
Railways could not consider a very simple prayer of a genuine very aged extreme Disabled Person though all papers / documents relating to eligibility to get an escort to travel with the Disabled in question but arranged charity distribution of very costly free pass to a large number of  different persons of the society having absolutely No connection with Railway or Railway works at all and thus made a Differential Treatment with a Sr.Citizen, Paralyzed Disabled Person. Please see the provisions made for PWDs:- [Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights
Declaration on the Rights of Disabled Persons
Proclaimed by General Assembly resolution 3447 (XXX) of 9 December 1975
3)    Railways silence to the appeals of an Aged, Paralyzed Disabled debarred him in observing / availing religious as well as pilgrimage tours to Thirupati, Kamrup, Tarapith Vaishna Devi etc. This is to be noted that a Paralyzed disabled, can’t move outside with out an escort & if escort cannot accompany the Disabled Person the deserved journey cannot be made by Disabled in question. By such action Railways are responsible for preventing me to avail the fundamental rights of performing religious customary as provided in constitution.
4)    Had Railways at the very initial stage of the appeal made three years back expressed their DISABILITY to help an extreme Paralyzed Disabled Person then the question of Differential Treatment, Ignore, Neglect, Insult, Payment of compensation to a PWD would have not arisen. I would have make some adjustment & proceeded for pilgrimage. Amount claimed towards compensation is Rupees seven lakhs and fifty thousand only.

Hope that Mittal Sahab, well conversant with my case will render proper justice to this Disabled at the fag end of life and oblige, Thanking you, Yours faithfully,
