Cover Story: India is witnessing a significant demographic change. We will no longer be a young nation. The number of elderly persons in India is progressively increasing. By 2025 it is expected that India will be home to more than 175 million people that are 60 years and above of age. Is the country ready to embrace this transition? Do we have adequate and appropriate aged care systems in place in the context of changing socio-economic conditions? What is the plight of the elderly among the poor? Are there options to set the poor on the trajectory of graceful ageing?
