Greetings. I am Virendra Gandhar speaking from Rajnandgaon, Chhattisgarh. I feel that many of the recordings being shared these days are not always making the best use of the platform. For example, people frequently ask for phone numbers to listen to songs or stories. While there is nothing wrong with enjoying songs and stories, today there are many ways to access them. Songs can be heard through mobile phones, television channels, radio, and various digital platforms. Similarly, stories can be found through smartphones, audio platforms, books, and even by spending time with elders such as grandparents, who can share valuable experiences and traditional stories. In my opinion, Hamari Vaani is a unique platform, especially for persons with disabilities. Therefore, it would be more meaningful if questions and discussions focused on disability-related issues, accessibility, education, employment, government schemes, assistive technology, rehabilitation, and other topics that can genuinely help community members. At the same time, some general questions, such as where to apply for a ration card or where a UDID card is issued, can often be answered by local teachers, officials, or educated people in the community. Hamari Vaani can create greater value when it is used to discuss issues that require shared experiences, specialized knowledge, and community support. Let us all work together to maintain the purpose and usefulness of the platform by asking thoughtful questions, sharing valuable information, and contributing content that benefits the visually impaired and disability community. Thank you.
