Dear all,
Are you aware that our Parliament had enacted the "Maintenance and Welfare of Parents and Senior Citizens Act, 2007"? Yes, it's done in December 2007.
Are you aware that the "International Day of Older Persons" falls on October 1 ?
The act makes it mandatory for children to take care of their parents and grand-parents in their old age. Though the law was enacted in Dec 2007, only seven States ( Andhra Pradesh, Jharkhand, Rajasthan, Assam, Tripura, Karnataka, and Nagaland) have notified the law (for being effective in the States). Now, the Union Minister for Social Justice and Empowerment (Ms. Meera kumar) have appealed all State Governments to notify the above act before the International Day of Older Persons (Oct 1).
Does this give you some relief ? Anyone ?
