Preetu Nair (TOI October 28, 2016) says that the elderly is a fast growing demographic in Kerala, but the quality of life they enjoy is dismal.
Globally the population of elderly is growing by 2 percent each year faster than the population as a whole. 3 percent are in old age homes. Rest live with their spouses or children or alone.
One has to fend for oneself for old age. Else be at the mercy of others and live in a hell!
