Age matters Article Published in The Gulf Today ,Uae on 15Sep 12 (268).
Many countries have special privileges for senior citizens. India too has programmes to benefit the elderly. However, some minor issues remain. I was planning to travel from Chennai to Bangalore and had booked my ticket by train. Surprisingly, I was allotted an upper berth in the train, while a youth got the lower one.
Elderly people find it tough to climb upper berths. Fortunately, the youngster readily agreed to swap seats. It is heartening that some youngsters understand the needs of the aged.
