📌 सुझाव टिप्पणियों के लिए अनुशंसित बिंदु (100 शब्दों के भीतर):
सुझाव टिप्पणी (संशोधित और प्रभावशाली):
> "SAC-RR द्वारा तैयार किया गया यह एक्सेसिबिलिटी फ्रेमवर्क अत्यंत सराहनीय पहल है। इसमें प्रत्येक परिवहन साधन में दिव्यांगजनों की समान, गरिमामय और सुरक्षित भागीदारी सुनिश्चित करने के लिए विशिष्ट मानकों को अनिवार्य बनाया गया है।
जैसे— व्हीलचेयर उपयोगकर्ताओं हेतु रैंप, ब्रेल साइनेज, विशेष टॉयलेट्स, दृष्टिबाधितों के लिए ऑडियो-विजुअल संकेत, तथा प्लेटफॉर्म-गैप ब्रिजिंग तकनीक। मेरा सुझाव है कि इन मानकों को नीति में समयबद्ध लागू करने की रूपरेखा भी जोड़ी जाए ताकि ये ड्राफ्ट केवल दस्तावेज़ न रहकर ज़मीन पर असर डाल सकें। यह समावेशी भारत की दिशा में एक ठोस कदम होगा।"
"ड्राफ्ट एक्सेसिबिलिटी स्टैंडर्ड्स एक स्वागतयोग्य पहल है, जो सार्वजनिक एवं निजी परिवहन सेवाओं को शारीरिक रूप से विकलांग व्यक्तियों के लिए सुलभ, सुरक्षित और बाधारहित बनाने की दिशा में महत्त्वपूर्ण कदम है। इससे समाज के प्रत्येक व्यक्ति को समान अवसर और गरिमा के साथ यात्रा करने का अधिकार मिलेगा।
स्टेशनों, बसों, ट्रेनों एवं अन्य परिवहन माध्यमों में रैंप, ब्रेल संकेत, व्हीलचेयर-अनुकूल शौचालय जैसी सुविधाओं की उपलब्धता सुनिश्चित की जानी चाहिए। यह पहल न केवल दिव्यांगजनों बल्कि वरिष्ठ नागरिकों और अस्थायी रूप से अक्षम लोगों के लिए भी लाभकारी सिद्ध होगी। यह एक समावेशी और संवेदनशील भारत की ओर प्रेरक प्रयास है।"
For Buses:
- Priority seats for persons with disabilities and pregnant women.
- Low floor entries and ramps.
- Electronic ticketing and contactless payments by using smart cards and mobile apps.
- Real time bus tracking.
- Display screens that show the next stop name.
- Audio announcements for visually or hearing impaired passengers.
- Clean buses.
- CCTV and security systems.
- Polite and trained drivers.
- Air conditioning / Heating.
Indian are already engaged with import and export. the fruits , vegetables, graincrops to foreign countries by aeroplanes in public sector but Indian economically back in rescission due to gdp is low.
Conduct Public Campaigns*: Improve social attitudes and transport etiquette towards persons with disabilities and access needs.
- *Expert Involvement*: Make participation of disability/accessibility experts mandatory for developing standards for vehicles, mobility systems, and transport services.
- *Coordinate Urban and Regional Transport*: Provide smooth transitions for travelers with and without disabilities
Bus Design Requirements*:
- *Priority Seating*: Designated seats for persons with disabilities with appropriate signage and securing mechanisms for crutches, canes, and walkers.
- *Wheelchair Accessibility*: Wheelchair entry, housing, and locking arrangements, as well as kneeling systems or lifts/ramp mechanisms for easy access.
- *Handrails and Stanchions*: Provided at entrances to facilitate navigation.
Standards for buses might include low-floor entries, ramps, wheelchair spaces, and designated priority seating. For trains, this could involve accessible coaches with wheelchair anchorage, widened doors and aisles, and level boarding ramps. Airports may require step-free access, rollout ramps on aerobridges, and aisle chairs.
"To the esteemed Ministry of Social Justice & Empowerment and MyGov,
Regarding the Draft Accessibility Standards for Transport & Mobility, I submit my "Comprehensive Reform Proposal for Mumbai Local Suburban Train System." While broad, this solution directly impacts accessibility by fundamentally transforming rail operations.
My proposal addresses systemic issues of overcrowding, safety hazards, and inefficiencies. By creating a safer, more orderly, and efficient system for over 10 million daily commuters, it inherently improves mobility for ALL, including persons with disabilities, by reducing physical barriers and stress caused by chaos.
This is a highly resolute, concrete model for unprecedented safety and efficiency. It ensures better, more accessible transport for everyone.
I urge you to consider this comprehensive reform as a vital contribution to safer, more inclusive transport for all citizens.
Thank you.
