Answer 1

tele communication is a tool that is used everywhere in the field like office, education, hospital, and all employment.it helps the person to do daily activities. for example communicating with family and friends, customers, staff, ordering food, attending conference, making emergenncy calls. telecommunication is useful for a person with no disability. but disability person finds difficulty using telecommunication system.
