The case is settled, in 30 minutes

25th July 2010, Sunday, Aaditi Jathar Lakade, The Sunday Express

The hammer came down in 30 minutes, the case was settled and Baban
Londhe went home a happy man.

Baban, a resident of Eklahare village in Ambegaon taluka, had been
fighting a court case against his younger brother Manohar Londhe for
the last three years—Manohar had allegedly encroached upon his
brother’s land, building a cattleshed and a godown. The case was being
heard in the Ghodegaon judicial magistrate first class (JMFC) court,
about 30 kilometres from Baban’s village. But on July 17, Saturday,
the case was put before the mobile Lok Nyayalaya (public court) held
at Kalamb village, barely two kilometres from Eklahare, and Baban won
the case. Judge SZH Kazi passed an order directing Manohar to remove
the encroachments.

The Lok Nyayalaya was held as part of a scheme called ‘Justice at the
doorsteps’, launched by the Maharashtra State Legal Service Authority
(MSLSA) this year. A mini-bus converted into a courtroom travels to
the doorsteps of rural litigants in the state. The bus has been
touring Pune district between July 5 and 31.

The mobile court halts at a village that is accessible to 10-15
surrounding villages. About 50 cases are taken up at each halt. “The
purpose of the mobile court is to settle such cases at the doorsteps
of villagers. It is beneficial to them since they don’t have to travel
long distances to the court and it helps the judiciary reducing case
backlogs,” says judge R H Mohammad, member-secretary, Pune district
legal service authority (DLSA).

Of the 50 cases that were put before the Lok Nyayalaya at Kalamb,
eight were settled. The unsettled cases go to the Ghodegaon JMFC
court.

The order passed by the Lok Nyayalaya is on a par with that passed by
a regular court. “It is to be strictly abided within the given time
limit of two months, else a contempt of court may be filed. Moreover,
since this order is passed with the mutual consent of both the
parties, there is no scope for appealing against it,” says Kazi.

Civil and criminal cases pertaining to property-related matters, cases
of cheques bouncing that fall under the Negotiable Instruments Act,
1881, and cases in the pre-litigation stage are put up before the Lok
Nyayalayas.

Most litigants were happy with the concept of travelling courts. “It
made us feel that the judge had come to hear our grievance,” says
Balasaheb Shinde, a litigant whose property-related dispute was not
settled in Kalamb village.

But there are lawyers who aren’t convinced about the idea. Mukund
Walse Patil, who practises in the Ghodegaon JMFC court, says litigants
are forced to settle their case in the mobile Lok Nyayalayas. “Most of
the times, the accused are ready to settle the case out of court and
the complainant is forced to do the same . So the accused almost
always gets away easy. But if the same case goes to the court, the
accused is punished, even if it takes longer,” he says.

But Judge Kazi, who travelled in the van between July 12 and 14, says
judges always counsel the litigants and talk to them about the need to
settle their cases in the Lok Nyayalayas. He says litigants were more
at ease during these court hearings than in the regular court.

Naina Padwal of the Ghodegaon bar association, who travelled with the
van in Ambegaon taluka, says the mobile courts have reduced the work
load of lawyers. “Litigants are relieved, so are the lawyers from
petty cases. This exercise must be carried out frequently in other
villages,” she says.

HC seeks govt take on admission to disabled
Shibu Thomas, TNN, Jul 28, 2010, 03.12am IST

MUMBAI: The Bombay High Court has directed the Maharashtra government
to clarify
its stand on allowing visually challenged and other disabled students
from pursuing
professional and health science courses.
The court was hearing a petition filed by a 17-year-old visually
challenged Ruparel
College student who is seeking admission to the physiotherapy course
at G S Medical
College attached to KEM Hospital. A division bench of Chief Justice
Mohit Shah and
Justice S C Dharmadhikari has sought the information from the
government by August
2.
The judges have also asked the authorities to allow the student,
Kritika Purohit,
to attend lectures, even as the bench asked the Directorate of
Medical Education
and Research to keep one seat vacant.
Kritika's lawyers, Jamshed Mistry and Kanchan Pamnani, informed the
court that she
had cleared the MH-CET (Maharasthra common entrance test) and medical
tests and was
ranked third in the physically challenged category. The government
sought a year's
time to make arrangements for visually challenged candidates to take
the course.
The court has asked the petitioner's lawyers to make state disability
commissioner,
G S Medical College and Maharashtra University of Health Sciences,
parties in the
case.
Kritika, one of the first visually challenged students to get
admitted to the HSC,
science stream, in the state, after scoring 82% in her SSC
examinations, moved the
High Court when she was barred from appearing for the MH-CET examinations.
The High Court intervened to allow her to appear for the exams.
The state pointed to the Medical Council of India rules, which
specify that only
a disabled person with a locomotive disability of the lower limb (50%
to 70%) could
apply for MBBS courses.
According to Kritika's lawyers, the state has not applied its mind on
whether visually
challenged students can pursue other health science and paramedical
courses such
as physiotherapy, which do not involve invasive surgical procedures.
The Persons With Disabilities Act makes it mandatory for 3%
reservation for disabled
persons in college admissions. Students who are visually challenged,
though, are
unable to get admissions to several courses, her lawyers have claimed.

Dear Sir,
Loan facilities to the physically / visually challenged by NBFCs
It has been brought to our notice that a NBFC has discriminated against physically /
visually challenged persons in the matter of offering loans.
2. NBFCs are therefore advised that there shall be no discrimination in extending

applicants on grounds of disability. NBFCs may also advise their branches to render all
possible assistance to such persons for availing of the various business facilities.
Yours sincerely

hi friends, i am happy to inform you that the tamilnadu based visually challenged organisations had approached the state government to seek the central government grant for their institution and

through a high level committee "Grant In Aid" recommended a total of
1 crore 37 lakhs and odd for 7 institutions working in tamilnadu.

i appeal to all visually challenged organisations to apply and utilise this valuable assistance for the wellbeing of the visually challenged community in the coming years.

New treatment for severe eye disease found ANIThursday, July 22, 2010 18:12 IST Email Washington, DC: Researchers may have found a new treatment for retinitis pigmentosa (RP), a severe neurodegenerative disease of the retina that ultimately results in blindness. University of Massachusetts Medical School (UMMS) researcher Shalesh Kaushal, MD, PhD, chair of ophthalmology and associate professor of ophthalmology and cell biology and his team conducted the study. Results from this study, in conjunction with prior in vitro data, suggest valproic acid may be an effective treatment for photoreceptor loss associated with RP. Five of the seven patients in the study experienced improvement in their field of vision. Because of its already known qualities as a potent inhibitor of the inflammatory response pathway and cell death, valproic acid was believed to have a unique profile making it a potential candidate as a retinal disease treatment. "Repurposing drugs already approved by the FDA and which have been shown to be safe, such as valproic acid, is an economical and time-efficient way to quickly bring new treatments to patients," said Kaushal. The study is published in the July 20 online edition of the British Journal of Ophthalmology. http://www.dnaindia.com/health/report_new-treatment-for-severe-eye-disea...

Accessibility of mobile phones and devices has generated a lot of
interest among blind and partially sighted people in recent times.
Compared to 5 or 6 years ago, the choice of accessible phones has
significantly improved.

in addition to 3rd party screen reading and screen magnification
solutions for Symbian Series 60 based Nokia phones, we now have Apple
iPhone 3GS and iPhone 4 which have a screen reader and screen
magnification software built-in, there by providing access out of the
box at no extra cost. There are also accessibility solutions in
development for Google's Android based smart phones and Blackberry
devices from Research in Motion. With all these options and the mobile
technology evolving continuously at a rapid pace, it is extremely
important for end users with visual impairments to understand all the
available alternatives to make an informed choice.

Further, most mobile phones these days can perform a number of useful
tasks other than voice calling and text messaging. These so called smart
phones and super phones are capable of providing access to your diary,
keep track of your tasks, provide satellite based navigation as well as
double up as media players.

Phone Watch is a series of short (about 2 hours each) and highly
interactive sessions where we aim to provide end users with information
and where ever possible, demonstrate all the latest developments in the
field of mobile devices and technology. Additionally, we also aim to
provide useful information and tips on how to make more use of your
phone's capabilities. Since the sessions are highly interactive,
participants are encouraged to exchange ideas and information which
could perhaps be documented to benefit other end users with visual
impairments.

The first of these Phone Watch sessions will be held at RNIB's
Judd Street office on Friday, the 30th of July from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm. if
you are interested in participating, please let the organisers know at
the earliest as places are very limited.

The provisional agenda for Phone Watch 1 is as follows:
* Welcome and introduction to Phone Watch - Robin Spinks,
Principal Manager, Digital Accessibility at RNIB.
* Demonstration of Vodafone Speak, an on-demand, over the air
screen reader for Symbian Series 60 mobile phones.
* Overview of built-in Android Accessibility features and 3rd
party custom accessibility tools.
* Interactive demos.
* iPhone and iPad apps to help partially sighted people use the
internet.
* Hands-on session.

short notice.

Access to 37 TV channels on mobiles HYDERABAD, July 11, 2010 S. Sandeep Kumar As mobile service operators and application developers vie with each other to offer services with high quality streaming and nil buffering, there are those who are looking at niche markets too. U.S.-based Global Takeoff Incorporation developed YuppTV, a mobile TV application which provides access to live shows on over 37 Indian entertainment and news channels. Presently, the service is confined to iPhone mobile and iPad users and the application can be downloaded from iTunes. Just one MB space“It all requires just one MB space for iPhone mobile users to download the application and it takes not more than 10 seconds to download it,” Global Takeoff Incorporation Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Uday Reddy told The Hindu in Hyderabad. Why iPhone? Because the company believes the user experience is much better in comparison to other mobiles. Other mobile users, who have the option of GPS facility in their mobiles could log on yupptv.com and register for subscription. Depends on bandwidthThe quality of the application depends on the bandwidth, and generally 350 to 500 kbps would be ideal. It might be easier in the future with more operators getting on to the 3G bandwagon. “The cost for monthly subscription depends on telecom operators. We are hoping it would range between Rs.100 and Rs.150. We are working on providing many more channels, including popular music channels,” says Mr. Reddy. Marketing toolThe application also comes with a next gen mobile marketing tool which allows advertisers to telecast customised mobile advertisements in live streams depending on satellite mapping for the location of a user. After the user's position is tracked, advertisers would be alerted about their position for streaming the advertisements. Users will have to approve it, he adds.

Hi Everyone,

We are conducting a research project at the University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC), to identify the strengths and weaknesses of screen readers for cellular phones (e.g. Nuance Talks, SmartHal, MobileSpeak, Oratio, in-built screen readers such as Voice Over etc). We are looking to perform phone-based interviews with users, with the aim of designing a system to address the challenges faced.

We are looking for both expert users and people who have recently started using mobile screen readers too. Interviews will be scheduled at a convenient time for you in the course of the next two to three weeks. All information will be kept securely.

If you are interested in participating, could you please contact Dr. Ravi Kuber and his team at umbcresearchstudy@yahoo.com (umbcresearchstudy at yahoo dot com)
indicating your experience with mobile screen readers and which dates/times are suitable for us to contact you.

5. Aids and Appliances



The awards will be given in 3 categories: Persons with disabilities, Working Professionals and Companies/Organisations.
