No matter how much you grow up and become independent and responsible, there comes a stage when you develop a need to rely on someone. Unfortunately, their dependency becomes a burden on their offspring. There has been an enormous increase in the number of senior citizens being sent to old age homes. These homes are built for the elderly in order to provide them basic food and shelter. These shelter homes are run by ordinary social workers who devote themselves for the good of the society.

After crossing a certain age, a person becomes weak, physically, emotionally and economically. They become dependent for their day to day chores. Their dependency in terms of economic matters also increases. There are various Senior Citizen Care non-governmental organizations in India that ensure the access of senior citizens to basic food, shelter and health care.
