💨 Abstract

Former Union minister Suresh Prabhu has highlighted the need for more old age homes due to increased life expectancy, fueled by technological advancements in health sciences. He emphasized that while senior citizens have resources, they lack a support system to understand their emotions and feelings in their later years. Prabhu suggested reviving the ancient concept of gurukul and extending it to old age homes, as emotional security is crucial for the elderly.
