On Sunday, when 35-year-old Miranda Tomkinson took the
national eligibility test (NET) of the University Grants Commission
(UGC) at a private college in the city, for the first time in his life,
he read the questions without the help of a scribe.
Not
just that, the visually-impaired Tomkinson also read out the answers to
his scribe with the help of the Braille question paper.
He
walked out of the examination hall with the question paper, almost like
everybody else. He can now store his question paper and more
importantly, refer to it without anybody’s help. This was not possible
before.
Tomkinson, who also has a degenerative
hearing disorder, was able to get a Braille question paper on Sunday
after a year-long struggle and a host of representations, including an
RTI petition, to UGC.
On Friday, the Madras High
Court directed UGC to set the paper for the visually impaired in
Braille. Tomkinson was writing the exam to be eligible for the post of
assistant professor.
Smitha Sadasivam, assistant
coordinator, disability legislation unit of Vidya Sagar, which took up
his cause, said this was the first time the UGC had given a Braille
question paper and the case had set a precedent.
“I
cannot forget this day,” said Tomkinson after a day spent writing paper
I, II and III of the Test. “In the absence of communication, it is not
possible to accomplish anything,” he said.
Though it
was a victory for Tomkinson on Sunday, Sadasivam said, as per court
order, the facility should have been extended to all the
visually-impaired candidates who appeared for the Test. According to
information from University of Madras, which conducted the exam in
Chennai, over 14,000 candidates registered for the examination in the
city. Of these, around 164 candidates were visually impaired.
According
to an office memorandum of the department of disability affairs,
ministry of social justice and empowerment, that speaks of guidelines
for conducting written examinations for persons with disabilities,
“Persons with disabilities should be given the option of choosing the
mode for taking the examinations, i.e. in Braille, or on the computer or
in large print or even by recording the answers as the examining bodies
can easily make use of technology to convert question paper in large
prints, e-text, or Braille and can also convert Braille text in English
or regional languages.”

ikely the most influential writer in all of English literature and certainly the most important playwright of the English Renaissance, William Shakespeare was born in 1564 in the town of Stratford-upon-Avon in Warwickshire, England. The son of a successful middle-class glove-maker, Shakespeare attended grammar school, but his formal education proceeded no further. In 1582, he married an older woman, Anne Hathaway, and had three children with her. Around 1590 he left his family behind and traveled to London to work as an actor and playwright. Public and critical success quickly followed, and Shakespeare eventually became the most popular playwright in England and part owner of the Globe Theater. His career bridged the reigns of Elizabeth I (ruled 1558 − 1603) and James I (ruled 1603 − 1625); he was a favorite of both monarchs. Indeed, James granted Shakespeare's company the greatest possible compliment by endowing them with the status of king's players. Wealthy and renowned, Shakespeare retired to Stratford, and died in 1616 at the age of fifty-two. At the time of Shakespeare's death, such luminaries as Ben Jonson hailed him as the ap

Antonio, a Venetian merchant, complains to his friends of a melancholy that he cannot explain. His friend Bassanio is desperately in need of money to court Portia, a wealthy heiress who lives in the city of Belmont. Bassanio asks Antonio for a loan in order to travel in style to Portia's estate. Antonio agrees, but is unable to make the loan himself because his own money is all invested in a number of trade ships that are still at sea. Antonio suggests that Bassanio secure the loan from one of the city's moneylenders and name Antonio as the loan's guarantor. In Belmont, Portia expresses sadness over the terms of her father's will, which stipulates that she must marry the man who correctly chooses one of three caskets. None of Portia's current suitors are to her liking, and she and her lady-in-waiting, Nerissa, fondly remember a visit paid some time before by Bassanio. In Venice, Antonio and Bassanio approach Shylock, a Jewish moneylender, for a loan. Shylock nurses a long-standing grudge against Antonio, who has made a habit of berating Shylock and other Jews for their usury, the practice of loaning money at exorbitant rates of interest, and who undermines their business by offering interest-free loans. Although Antonio refuses to apologize for his behavior, Shylock acts agreeably and offers to lend Bassanio three thousand ducats with no interest. Shylock adds, however, that should the loan go unpaid, Shylock will be entitled to a pound of Antonio's own flesh. Despite Bassanio's warnings, Antonio agrees. In Shylock's own household, his servant Lancelot decides to leave Shylock's service to work for Bassanio, and Shylock's daughter Jessica schemes to elope with Antonio's friend Lorenzo. That night, the streets of Venice fill up with revelers, and Jessica escapes with Lorenzo by dressing as his page. After a night of celebration, Bassanio and his friend Graziano leave for Belmont, where Bassanio intends to win Portia's hand. In Belmont, Portia welcomes the prince of Morocco, who has come in an attempt to choose the right casket to marry her. The prince studies the inscriptions on the three caskets and chooses the gold one, which proves to be an incorrect choice. In Venice, Shylock is furious to find that his daughter has run away, but rejoices in the fact that Antonio's ships are rumored to have been wrecked and that he will soon be able to claim hi
