We received a call at the Elder-line Center from Pushparaj Club and NGO regarding an elderly woman. She is over 80 years old and lives in Kailashahar. Her only son is married and settled in Bangalore. Unfortunately, he does not take care of his mother.
Our team immediately contacted the Social welfare and social education department, Agartala and as per their advice we have reached out to District Welfare Officer of Unakoti, and informed him about the situation. We requested him to take urgent action.
After searching for a suitable place, the elderly women was shifted to an old age home in Khowai, Manipuri basti (Khowai-Kamalpur road), run by the NGO Scientific Vision Centre. She is now living safely, with proper food, shelter, and care.
A success story of rescuing a Senior Citizen Lady involves a coordinated effort: an Elder Line connect centre at Agartala receives a call, assesses the situation in the leadership of Project manager along with Team Leader and contacts local government machinery and NGOs. The Social Welfare and Social Education department’s Director then facilitate access to resources, while the NGO provides care and secures a suitable Old age Home .This synergy ensures holistic support, from immediate rescue and medical care to long-term residential solutions, transforming a distressing situation into a dignified living arrangement for the elderly individual.
