ABSTRACT: Elderly were, once upon a time, the beacon of our life. Their traditional wisdom and exceptional
experience were revered and respected far and wide. Living up to a grant old age was a source of
personal pride. Strategic decisions and harmonious solutions in the family were arrived at with
the involvement in and the participation of the elderly. In rural areas, most often, elderly settled
disputes and took decisions unchallenged. The nexus within the family was, therefore, more
personalised, kinship-oriented and participatory.
