The ‘Elderline’ helpline, initiated by Rashtriya Samajik Sanstha, the Department of Social Justice and Special Assistance, and the Janseva Foundation, is providing much-needed support to senior citizens. When senior citizens call the helpline, their complaints are registered, and actions are taken to resolve their issues.
Many senior citizens have found relief through this facility, which is designed to help them with a range of problems, including domes- tic issues. Recognising that older citizens often face various challenges without having anyone to turn to, the central government has launched this helpline to offer assistance during crises.
