Abondoned mothers.
by arungopal agarwal on Mar 07, 2007 05:30 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

This is really horrifying situation. People of their own can help in a limited manner, they cannot find a permanant solution. I am of the opinion, that those who are crippled and unable to even move due to oldage etc., they should be permitted to die voluntarily. For others, Govt. is to provide a budget for making homes for such abondoned old people. Otherwise Govt. is spending a lot of money in subsidies and welfare schemes. It is the duty of the Govt. to look after such needy people.

It is an utter shame on civilization that mother's die in want of relations. If the greatest of all relations are treated like this, It is a shame on society and if government also fails in this aspect of taking care of old people and little kids, it is an useless government. It is a waste of life for those children, if they can not take care of their parents. Hope the new law would be enforced very strictly.
