Visually-Impaired Protest for Offline Bus Pass Issuance

Visually impaired individuals protested in Chennai, demanding the reinstatement of offline bus pass issuance, citing challenges with the online application process. They highlighted the difficulty of attaching seven required documents, including ration and Aadhaar cards, which many do not possess.

Protestors criticized the lack of awareness campaigns and the inaccessibility of the online system. The e-Sevai centers’ fees and server issues further exacerbated their difficulties. In the recent Assembly session, protestors expressed frustration over the lack of government job announcements for the visually impaired.
