Landed in US, booked a cab from @lyft to go to my hotel & saw a note that my driver is deaf/ hard of hearing.
The app also prompted me on how to use helpful American Sign Language phrases.
And as it turns out, when the cab arrived, my driver was indeed deaf. He handed over a card stating so & welcoming me. And I said thank you in sign language.
Will we ever have the same level of opportunity and respect for specially enabled people in India & go beyond just offering them a quota in Government jobs.
There may be thousands of things wrong with the US & troll me for it but as a country, it truly does provide equal opportunity for all, regardless of disability.
India, we all need to step up.
Join the Fremont Police Department for a sweet afternoon of fun at Ice Cream with Superheroes on Wednesday, July 8, from 4:00 PM to 5:00 PM at Bruster's Real Ice Cream (40524 Albrae Street, Fremont, CA 94538).
Meet your local first responders, including special guests from the Fremont Fire Department! This is a great opportunity for kids and community members to connect with the people who serve Fremont in a relaxed and friendly setting.
We look forward to seeing you there!
It is very heartening to see Congressman Sanford Bishop, Jr. @SanfordBishop remind folks of the pioneering work done to pass the Hinduphobia Resolution in Georgia. It is an accomplishment that CoHNA is very proud to have achieved in April 2023, by working Assemblymembers @McDonaldGA26 and @turntotodd . 🙏🏿
We thank him again for supporting the American Hindu community and look forward to seeing him in DC soon. Our 5th Day of Hindu Advocacy is coming up on June 30th.

Last night, we made it clear: we want to restore the dedicated right-turn lane at Mowry Avenue and Fremont Boulevard.
This is about common sense. It’s about reducing congestion, improving traffic flow, and responding to what our community has been saying loud and clear.
Good government means listening, fixing what is not working, and making practical decisions that improve daily life.
We’re going to keep working to make Fremont move better for everyone.

Annually preparing Affordable Care Act (ACA) forms to furnish to your employees and file with the IRS can be time consuming and complex, especially if you are an applicable large employer with an average of 50 or more FTE (and full-time equivalents). https://t.co/jtvoqR3IIt
There’s more to ACA compliance than providing employees with timely and affordable coverage. Learn about ACA data, tracking and reporting requirements. https://t.co/Ycljkup5Ef
@MbarkCherguia https://t.co/Guva4G8ZSP. To stand only.
Escalators are not designed as moving staircases for active walking. Walking introduces additional stress on their mechanisms, increasing wear & tear. Over time, this can lead to higher maintenance needs & potential malfunctions.
