Is it a crime to be a Senior Citizen in India?
Senior Citizens are not a burden but they are the valuable assets for any society, system and the country! But the Govt is treating and dumping them as lawarish!
If Senior members of the family get upset, it will affect the polls and the party in power and government will have to face the consequences!
Share it all in your groups and circles. You all are well connected with social media. Let’s reach the voice of senior citizens to the deaf ears of the system of a new era!
In India, Senior Citizens after 70 years of age are not eligible for medical insurance !
They do not get loans on EMI !
Driving license is not given !
They are not given any jobs for financial work! So they depend on others!
He had paid all the taxes in his youth. Now even after becoming a senior citizen he has to pay all the taxes on his savings, retirement fund, gratuity etc. and that too used by the government with very minimal return.
There are no schemes for Senior Citizens in India.
The 50% for females and 40% for males, concession on railway journey is also discontinued.
This is a horrible and agonized thing and too much disappointing situation for the Senior Citizens.
If Senior members of the family get upset, it will affect the polls and the party in power and government will have to face the consequences.
Who will look after the senior citizens? So the government? Seniors have the power to change the system and government, so that don’t think and ignore them as weak or disabled!
No care is taken to avoid any trouble in the lives of senior citizens. Wind justice!
The government spends a lot of money on non-renewable schemes, but it never feels that a scheme and the minimal concessions is necessary for senior citizens!
On the contrary, by reducing the interest rate on the bank deposits, government is reducing the income of the senior citizens.
Senior Citizens are not a burden but they are the valuable assets for any society, system and the country. But the Govt is treating and dumping them as lawarish. Their savings used by the government by giving very low rate of interest.
Even though being an Indian Senior Citizen seems to be a crime!
Govt want to fool the senior citizens!
Now, there is information and also the talk of government circles that the government is considering to restore and to allow the concessions for the senior citizens on Railway travel but hiking the age limit 70 years and above.
This should not be accepted in any condition. If the government doesn’t restore it as earlier then it will be useless for the senior citizens because very few people are able to travel after 70 years of age.
Share it all in your groups and circles. You all are well connected with social media. Let’s reach the voice of senior citizens to the deaf ears of the system of a new era.
