Handbook of Inclusive Education
by Central Board Of Secondary EducationThe Constitution of India emphasizes the importance of equality of status and opportunity for all citizens, and institutions like CBSE have a duty to support and inspire every child to succeed. In order to promote inclusivity in schools and ensure that children with special needs are accommodated, CBSE has made it mandatory for schools to provide disability-specific learning aids, alternate pedagogies, and exam concessions. To disseminate accurate information on these provisions, CBSE has created a handbook for teachers that provides guidance on identifying children with special needs, creating a barrier-free environment, using instructional designs and assistive technologies, and conducting assessments. While the handbook follows a generic approach, it can be adapted to suit the needs of different contexts and target groups. CBSE believes that the tools and techniques outlined in the handbook will be useful for teachers and will increase access, equity, and participation of all children in the learning process.

Digital Bharat: डिजिटल भारत
by Dr Deepak Shikarpurपंचवीस वर्षांनी माहिती तंत्रज्ञानाची गंगा म्हणजेच 'आयटी' भारतात वाहत आहे आणि ती सर्वसामान्य नागरिकांसाठी वास्तव बनली आहे. अंगणी येऊन एक दशकाहून अधिक काळ लोटला आहे. मुळात ही संगणकीय क्रांती असली तरी, प्रत्येकाच्या हातात स्मार्टफोन (किमान साधे मोबाइल फोन) आल्यापासून त्याचा खरा प्रसार (आणि परिणाम) जाणवू लागला आहे. आपली बरीचशी सरकारी कामे ऑनलाइन होऊ लागली आहेत! किमान बिले भरणे, एखाद्या प्रकरणाची माहिती घेणे, तक्रारी दाखल करणे, संबंधित कार्यालयात पोहोचणे आणि तिथल्या विभागाचा शोध घेणे आणि योग्य अधिकाऱ्याची वाट पाहणे यासारख्या मूलभूत कामांसाठी शहरी-निमशहरी भागातही तासनतास वाया जातात. आणि जतन केलेले मानसिक आणि शारीरिक श्रम (सामाजिक, आर्थिक, आत्म-सुधारणा इ.) इतरत्र वापरा. काही हरकत नाही! आणि हे अगदी घरी केले जाऊ शकते. थोडे कौशल्य आत्मसात केले तर अनेकांना त्यात दूरगामी करिअरच्या (कमाईच्या) संधी मिळतील. इंटरनेट, कनेक्टेड कॉम्प्युटर किंवा स्मार्टफोन आणि स्वत:चे बँक खाते यांच्या मदतीने - अगदी गृहिणी देखील तिच्या घरातील आरामात पैसे कमवू शकते. एकदा तुम्ही डिजिटल कौशल्यांमध्ये प्रभुत्व मिळवल्यानंतर, तुम्ही अनेक व्यावहारिक, परस्पर पैलू हाताळण्यास सक्षम असाल. "खरीच कर लो दुनिया मुटका" हे स्वप्न आता सहज शक्य झाले आहे.
Banking On Accessibility
by Xavier'S Resource Centre For The Visually ChallengedThis is a representation report voicing concerns of Persons with Disabilities in access to financial services despite existing legal and executive provisions mandating their financial inclusion. It is a comprehensive document that can be used by regulatory and governance authorities like the Reserve Bank of India, banks, other associated bodies, decision makers and policy experts. It shall aid them in monitoring and evaluation of existing guidelines and the level of their implementation in reality. It articulates problems faced by users and makes strong recommendations to improve the scenario. The scope of the report is largely focussed on infringement of rights of persons with visual impairment who use or propose to use banking facilities. However, we propose that a similar in-depth study be conducted to understand the ground level realities for various other kinds of disabilities and ensure that everyone has a seamless and accessible banking experience.

BEAWARE: A Booklet on Modus Operandi of Financial Fraudster
by Reserve Bank Of IndiaThere has been a sizable surge in usage of digital modes of payment during the recent years. This has not only led to improved customer convenience, but also contributed to achievement of national objective of financial inclusion to a great extent. As the ease of doing financial transactions improved, the number of frauds in retail financial transactions have gone up. Fraudsters have been using innovative methods to defraud the hard-earned money of common and gullible people, especially new entrants who are not entirely familiar with the techno-financial eco-system. In compiling this booklet, the sole objective has been to pack between its covers maximum possible extent of practical information of real value, especially for those who are inexperienced in financial transactions. It is not just a collection of incidents, gathered at random from various sources, but a meticulously compiled document from the variety of complaints received at offices of Banking Ombudsman. This booklet is an attempt at creating awareness among public about the modus operandi of the fraudsters, while also providing some inputs about precautions to adopt while carrying out financial transactions. This booklet emphasizes the need to keep one's personal information safe, beware of unknown calls/emails, practicing due diligence while performing financial transactions and changing the secure credentials/ passwords from time to time. Hence the title BE(A)WARE – Be Aware and Beware! This booklet is part of the public awareness building initiative by this Office and is being uploaded on EKP for the benefit of all RBI Offices.

التسامح
by أوشو د. علي الحدادمتى أدركنا معنى الشغف فلن يكون صعبا إدراك العطاء أو التسامح. فالشغف حالة جسدية مادية إنها خضوعك لسيطرة الجسد دون وعي للنتائج... تعني أنك لست سيد نفسك بل عبدا لانفعالك. التسامح يعني أنك تجاوزت حاجات الجسد وتخطيت كل الحواجز النفسية يعني إنك تحررت من عبودية الجسد وأصبحت سيد نفس. وهكذا صرت تتصرف بوعي غير خاضع لقوى خارجية هي تحدد قرارك. أنت الآن حر التصرف بكامل طاقتك وهكذا صار بمقدورك تحويل الشغف إلى عطاء. الشغف شهوة العطاء حب. الشغف رغبة العطاء انفتاح. الشغف طمع العطاء مشاركة. الشغف يدعوك لاستغلال الآخرين فيما العطاء يجبرك على احترامهم. الشغف يبقيك ملتصقا بالأرض يبقي قدميك غارقتين في الوحل وهكذا لن تصبح زهرة لوتس لا اليوم ولا غدا فيما العطاء يجعلك هذه الزهرة فيمنحك قوة النمو وتخطي طبقات التراب وتجاوز عالم الرغبات والطمع عالم الأنانية والغضب. العطاء تحول في مسار طاقتك. في الواقع أنت إنسان مقدس ينبعث مثل العطر غير أن الغضب يستهلك بعضا من طاقتك كذلك يفعل الطمع والشهوة أيضا ... هكذا تستهلك طاقتك سدى . الرغبات والشهوات تسيطر عليك تدمر قدراتك وطاقاتك وتبقيك إنسانا فارغا تافها . تذكر ما قال وليم بليك: «الطاقة هي البهجة» غير أنك استهلكت كل طاقاتك فكيف ستشعر بالبهجة والفرح أما حين تحسن استغلال طاقاتك فهذا يعني أن حياتك ستمتلىء بالفرح يعني أن فيضا من البهجة سينطلق منك. يعني أنك ستصبح بوذا آخر. إنما لن تصبح بوذا آخر إلا بعد اختبار معنى العطاء... إنه الحب الدافىء إنه مشاركة الآخرين الفرح والسرور. إنه إشراك الآخرين في وجودك أنت الآن مبارك ويمكنك منح الآخرين. هذا هو العطاء. الشغف لعنة والعطاء نعمة.

BioBalance: The Acid/Alkaline Solution to the Food Mood-Health Puzzle
by Rudolf A. WileyA host of problematic health conditions, including anxiety, depression, fatigue, insomnia, undiagnosable digestive and weight disorders, and PMS, are NOT, as previously and erroneously believed, stress-induced. Instead these symptoms are almost always the result of acid/alkaline imbalances in blood biochemistry which can be controlled nutritionally. If your life has become a nightmare of futile doctors' visits resulting in diagnoses like: "Everything is within normal limits,""You're suffering from too much stress,""Your problem seems to be psychological," then this book will change your life. The explanations in BioBalance: The Acid/Alkaline Solution uncover physiological reasons for seemingly undiagnosable problems.

Nuggets of Gold
by Virginia GormanBack Cover: WHAT ARE NUGGETS OF GOLD? I was influenced by something my husband read recently. The message was that no one has a right to die until they are empty. As a result of this statement, I have written this book. Many of the NUGGETS herein were birthed out of personal experiences. May these brief chapters be a representation of Proverbs 25:11. The New King James states: "A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in settings of silver." The New Living Translation says: "Timely advice is as lovely as golden apples in a silver basket."
