KNOWLEDGECAN BE FINITE;IGNORANCE ISNECESSARILY

INFINITE.

LIFE WITHOUT POWERLearning to live without power is an art. Most of us have been

accustomed to take power for granted and use it rather liberallyfor necessities and comforts. There are those who think power istheir birthright and as a factor inherited due to their affluentbackground. There is yet another clan which considers power asa commodity that can be bought and sold without any limit. Thepresent generation, however, is getting to be more realistic. Theyare getting used to the idea of managing their affairs with andwithout power.

To come to specifics, the lady of the house is the one who isbadly affected when there is no power supply particularly in themornings. She is looked upon in most families as the curtain raiser,giving the coffee call signifying the start of day for all at home.Her routine takes a beating when her household chores eitherget disrupted or prolonged due to power failure. There is a chainreaction following this disruption or prolongation for all members,young and old, in the family. Prior announcement of disruption orcut in power supply mitigates the inconvenience to some extentsince meticulous planning of activities ranging from use of electricand electronic gadgets in the kitchen, wash room etc. to re-charging the mobile phones, without which human beings find itdifficult to exist these days, can keep us going.

Absence of power supply is not altogether a curse. We areable to hear the chirping of the birds, of itinerant traders, childrencoming out to the streets and chatting awaiting the pickup vanand autos etc. Wherever building activity goes on near our place,the constant use of electric saws and cutters grinds to a halt anda great feeling of relief to the ears is felt. The roaring noise createdby the old generation air-conditioners is also cut off. But sometimesgenerator sets used in households set off this relatively quiteatmosphere.

To live without power in hot and humid places is to live withsweat. Uninvited guests called by name mosquitoes do their bitutilising this great opportunity demanding the share of humanblood which they have been thirsting for. Driving away themosquitoes through use of coils, liquids and the like may fattenthe purses of the manufacturers of these items but not all humanbeings feel comfortable with the smoke or smell generated bythese. Liberal spraying of gas by the municipal authoritiessometimes result in the mosquitoes getting driven from streets tohouses and with a vengeance they suck the blood of the haplessvictim with great vigour.

By and large we have learnt to live without power at scheduledintervals and seek alternative modes of going ahead with our dayto day activities.

A set of people who might really feel miserable without powerare those in whom enormous powers were vested due to theiroccupational hazards during the currency of their tenure inpowerful positions. If they, due to popular verdict in the polls ordue to the expiry of tenure of the powerful position they wereholding, have to again live a humble life as a commoner, itbecomes a frustrating experience and some find it difficult todigest.

One thing is clear. We are in need of power. And that toouninterrupted and continuous supply. It makes life comfortable.The power enjoyed by persons holding positions is similar to this.And this may get the holders not only bouquets but also brickbatsat times. In general, we can say that the quality of life of a citizenis generally much better with power. Let power be used judiciouslyso that our level of comfort does not vary violently.

STATUS OF OLDER WOMEN IN INDIA(Extracts from Agewell Foundation Report)

Marginalization/isolation or alienation in old age isamong the most common issues that are affecting olderwomen constantly. Older women, who are still living withtheir sons/daughters and grand-children are also sufferingfrom emotional alienation.

Older women, who live in cities, are prone to socialalienation/marginalization in comparison to older womenof villages. Joint family system is still alive in rural areas.Older women, who live in semi urban situations/industrialtownships also, find it difficult to cope with old age,particularly after their children have grown up and husbandsretire.

With increased life span of older women in old age,their financial needs are emerging as major concerns inold age. However, today many older women have property/money but they cannot possibly use the money or takefinancial decisions on their own. Social traditions don’t allowthem to use their ancestral property / money for their ownwelfare. They may be rich or poor; they always have to actaccording to others’ directives.

In old age most of the older women face family problemslike uncomfortable relations with daughters-in-law, limitedinteraction with children, grand-children. Their daughters-in-law don’t like their interference in family matters, childrenare busy with their jobs, and their husbands invariably havemood swings after retirement and mostly restrict their freemovements.

Due to negligence, lack of awareness, financial supportand religious mindset of women, older women often haveto face acute health problems. Most old women are self

conscious. Due to their home-bound lifestyle they don’tattain confidence even in their young life. Changes inappearance in old age, dependence on spectacles, hearingaids, receding hairline, wrinkled skin… everything makesthem more and more self-conscious.

In India, women have never found themselves at thecentre stage. They have always been marginalized fromthe mainstream of the society. Living as second classcitizen for centuries, their mindset has also developedaccordingly and never enjoyed privileges of development.

They worked very hard throughout their life, theydedicated every moment of their life for the sake of theirchildren and husband, and they poured love, compassionand empathy on their families and remained ready for anykind of sacrifice. But when they become old and need familysupport from their familymembers, children and others, theyare left alone physically, socially, psychologically.

Today, we need to focus on issues concerning olderwomen in order to ensure a respectful, more comfortableand healthy environment for them to live in. All concernedstakeholders need to work together in the direction of -

• Bringing perceptual change towards old age in generalsociety

• Sensitizing younger generations towards elderlywomen

• Empowering younger women to develop them asstrong older women

• Spreading awareness older women about their rights& powers

• Bringing attitudinal changes in girls towards their life• Initiating the process of strengthening human rights

of older women.

Letter from Mr. R. N. Mital, President, AISCCON(Extracts)

To the AISCCON Central Council members and Patrons,other eminent Senior Citizens and well wishers,

Another act of indifference on part of the GOI - Indiaabstained in the vote in the UN General Assembly on HumanRights of older persons on December 20, 2012 reports Dr.Sailesh Mishra, Founder President - Silver Inning Foundation

India was ABSENT on Nov 27th 2012 also at the UNGeneral Assembly from Voting at the Third Committee(Human Rights) working towards a comprehensive andintegral international legal instrument to promote and protectthe rights and dignity of older persons. It can be seen fromthe voting record that while 54 countries voted in favour, only3 voted against the process initiated by the Open EndedWorking Group on Aging(OEWG). Most of our neighboursin Asia including Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Thailand,Vietnam etc.voted in favour of the resolution. Other majorCountries such as Egypt, South Africa, Tanzania, Brazil etc.also voted in its favour

Avoiding to support a resolution to provide protection ofhuman rights of senior citizens shows indifferent attitude ofour Government towards our issues. In fact it has repeatedlyignored & neglected the 120 Million senior citizens in ourCountry. We have to pressurize and convince ourGovernment to act.Research Project to find reasons for non or partialimplementation of Welfare Scemes launched by theCentre

This very prestigious and major project has beenawarded by MOSJE, our nodal Ministry to AISCCON. Underthe Project it is intended to find the reasons why the Stateshave not implemented or have only partially implementedvarious welfare schemes for senior citizens. The findingsof this

It will be carried out under the supervision ofDr. D. Jamuna , Professor, SV University who will be thePrincipal Investigator. She will be assisted byDr. P. Vyasamoorthy as Co-investigator and Prof (DR). P.V..Ramamurty as the Technical Advisor, with myself as theProject Director.

A unique initiative by Chandigarh Senior Citizens’Association (CSCA) - Over the years CSCA have beenpaying special attention to the most vulnerable section ofsociety, namely the girl children, adolescent girls anddestitute women, through their various projects such asShakti, Vanita and Vidya. They have been imparting freecomputer training under Vidya to mentally challenged poorgirls. Last year they were judged as the best Urban SeniorCitizens’ Association by the All India Senior Citizens’Confederation (AISCCON).

They have now embarked on a unique service projectand it is to encourage exceptionally gifted girls who have inthem the capacity and urge to reach for the sky ( usingtheir own words) by excelling in a profession of their ownchoice. It is proposed to give financial support to thesebrilliant girls to pursue their studies in their chosenprofessional course. It is expected that the cost per girlchild over a period of 5 to 7 years may work out to around5 lakhs or more.

We all do believe that for senior citizens to maintainrespectable position in society, they must play a constructiverole in all activities benefiting the community. CSCA hasset an example in this regard. We are proud of them .Theabove Project is going to be inaugurated on April 16, 2013in a function which will be presided over by our nodalMinister, Hon’ble Kumari Selja. AISCCON will berepresented by Sri J.R.Gupta and myself.

AISCCON Senior Citizens’ Welfare Fund - Have youremitted to Mr. Kshetramade your contribution to the aboveFund?? The minimum contribution from each Associationaffiliated with AISCCON has to be at least RS.100 permember. Kindly help.

In the last Executive Committee meeting it was decidedthat our minimum target for Corpus should be Rs 50 Lakhs.We have still a long way to go.

This year AISCCON plans to equip 100 (God willing)Old Age Homes for indigent senior citizens all over theCountry with Wheel Chairs for the convenience of ourdisabled, oldest old ( 80+) elders.

With warm regards,Yours sincerely,~/
