PREFACE
The National Sample Survey Organisation (NSSO) in its 52nd round (July 1995 June
1996) carried out a nation wide survey on social consumption to assess, among other things, the
nature and dimensions of the socio-economic problems faced by the aged, i.e. persons of age 60
years and above. The survey also studied the extent of utilisation of facilities in the field of
Education and Health. Earlier, a comprehensive survey on the aged was carried out in the 42nd
round (July 1986-June 1987).
The present report is on the aged and is based on the Central Sample data collected in
the 52nd round. Data was collected for the aged on their number of living children, living
arrangement, state of economic independence, number of dependants, state of health, disability
and their familial roles in the household. Information was also collected on their usual activity,
retirement benefits derived, provisions for regular income, etc. Information so collected have
been tabulated and presented in this report.
Fieldwork of the survey was conducted by the Field Operations Division. Data scrutiny
and tabulation were handled by Data Processing Division. The Survey Design & Research
Division was responsible for the designing of the survey and preparation of the report.
I am grateful to the members of the Governing Council and members of the Working
Group for their valuable guidance at various stages of the survey work. I also wish to thank the
heads of the various divisions of NSSO and their colleagues for their efforts in conducting the
survey and bringing out this report. We hope that this report would serve as an important
reference document to the policy makers and other users of NSS data.
Comments and suggestions are most welcome.

Highlights
The aged form about 5.5 per cent of the

total population of India. The share of
the aged, in general, was higher among
females than males and was also higher
in rural areas than in urban areas.
The old-age dependency ratio is higher
in rural than in urban areas.
The sex ratio (viz. the number of females
per 1000 males) among the aged was
983 during the period 1987-88 to 199394 and rose to 1023 in 1995-96.
The proportion of
widows and
widowers (58 to 61 per cent) was
pronounced among the aged, but
declined over time. The decline was
sharper among females and in urban
areas.
About 94 per cent of aged persons had at
least one surviving child and 6 per cent
either never had any child or had
children who were not surviving on the
date of survey.
Only 33 (rural) to 35 (urban) per cent of

the aged were living without spouse but
with their children, 5 per cent were
living with other relations and nonrelations and 4 to 5 per cent lived alone.
As many as 70 per cent of the aged had

to depend on others for their day-to-day
maintenance. The situation is still worse
for elderly females. Among them, about
85 to 87 per cent were economically
dependent either partially or fully.
Of the economically dependant aged, 74

per cent had to depend on their children
Report No. 446: The Aged in India: A Socio-economic Profile, 1995-96
and 14 to 16 per cent on their spouses

for their economic support.
On an average, an aged male had more

dependants than an aged female during
1995-96.
Nearly 40 per cent of the elderly in India

were working to earn their livelihood.
Among the aged who were once

employed either as wage/salaried
employees or as casual labour, about 79
per cent in the rural areas and 35 per
cent in the urban areas did not receive
any benefit on their retirement.
About 54 per cent of the aged had some

kind or other of financial assets in 199596. The proportion was 8 percentage
points lower in 1986-87 in urban areas.
In the rural areas, about 63 per cent of

the aged had some property. The
corresponding estimate was 58 per cent
for the urban areas.
The prevalence of chronic diseases

among the aged was in general seen to
be very high and it was higher in the
urban areas (55 per cent) than in the
rural areas (52 per cent). Problem of
joints and cough happened to be the
most severe diseases for the aged.
Around 75 per cent of the aged

participated in social matters, 80 to 83
per cent in religious matters and about
78 per cent of the aged participated in
household chores.

Introduction
disability, health status, adequacy of food,
clothing, etc., was collected in this round
and certain information on willingness to
move to an old-age home and preference of
location of old-age home was dropped.
However, the basic concepts, definitions and
procedures remained almost the same in
both the rounds. The present report is on the
aged and is based on the results obtained
from the 52nd round.
1.1
The National Sample Survey
Organisation (NSSO), for the first time,
conducted a survey on aged persons along
with the survey on social consumption in its
42nd round (July 1986- June 1987). The
survey was carried out at the instance of the
Ministry of Welfare and was aimed to assess
the nature and dimensions of the socioeconomic problems of the aged, i.e. persons
of age 60 years and above. After a gap of
almost nine years as a part of the decennial
programme of NSS surveys, the survey on
social consumption was repeated in the 52nd
round (1995-96). In this round, two detailed
schedules, other than the schedule on
consumer expenditure and employmentunemployment, were canvassed. In one
schedule (Schedule 25.2), information
relating to participation in education like
school attendance, educational benefits
received, expenditure made for education,
drop-outs, etc. was collected. In another
(Schedule 25.0), information was collected
on health care. Schedule 25.0 included
information on morbidity, utilisation of
medical services for treatment of ailments,
particulars of pregnancy, death, child care
and infant feeding practices, pre-natal and
post-natal care and also the problems of
aged persons. In fact, the three subjects of
Maternity and Child Care, Utilisation of
Medical Services and Problems of Aged
Persons covered separately in the NSS
42nd round were integrated into one
schedule in the 52nd round. Thus, the
module of information on the aged formed a
part of the schedule on Survey on Health
Care. Some additional information on
1.2 In the survey, the data collected for the

aged were their number of living children,
living arrangement, state of economic
independence, number of dependants,
persons supporting the aged, disability,
chronic ailments, state of health and their
familial roles in the household. This apart,
the information on usual activity, retirement
benefits, provisions for regular income, etc.,
were collected. Some of these data have
been tabulated and presented in this report.
1.3 Two separate samples of first-stage units
(FSUs), i.e. census villages in the rural
areas and urban blocks in the urban areas,
were selected for the survey. One set of
sample FSUs, called the Central sample,
was surveyed by the NSSO. The other set,
more or less on an equal matching basis and
known as the State sample, was surveyed by
the Directorate of Economics & Statistics of
each States and Union Territories. The
present report is based on results obtained
from the central sample surveyed by the
NSSO.
1.4 The number of villages and urban
blocks surveyed, the number of households
Chapter One
Introduction
surveyed and the number of aged persons

enumerated in the survey are given (in
Chapter 3) separately for rural and urban
areas of different States and UTs. It may be
seen that the number of aged persons
surveyed in smaller States and UTs are not
adequate enough to obtain the estimates
within the acceptable margin of errors.
Thus, the results pertaining to the smaller
States and UTs are not presented in this
report. However, the all-India estimates are
inclusive of all the States and UTs.
excepting the Ladakh, the Kargil and Doda

districts of Jammu & Kashmir, the interior
villages of Nagaland situated beyond 5 kms.
of a bus route and inaccessible villages of
Andaman & Nicobar Islands.
1.6 Layout of the report: After this
introductory chapter, some concepts and
definitions used in the survey and relevant to
this report are discussed in Chapter Two.
Sampling design and estimation procedure
are given in Chapter Three. Chapter Four
gives the main findings of the survey at the
all-India level. Detailed tables for the
seventeen major States and all-India are
given in the appendix to the report.
1.5 Geographical coverage: The survey

covered the whole of the Indian Union

statuses took the persons major time in the

year. In the second stage, those who are
found in the labour force will be further
classified into working (i.e. engaged in
economic activity or employed) and seeking
and/or available for work (i.e. unemployed)
based on the major time spent. Thus the
principal usual status will be one of the
three: (i) employed, (ii) unemployed and
(iii) out of labour force.
2.1 In the survey, information was collected

through the household approach by
enumerating all the members of each sample
household and recording the particulars for
each of them. As usual, a group of persons
normally living together and taking food
from a common kitchen is taken to
constitute a household. Among many other
things, usual activity status of each member
of the household was recorded. For the aged,
particulars of disability, chronic ailment and
state of economic independence, etc., were
collected. The concepts and definitions used
for collecting these items of information are
discussed below:
2.3 Visual disability: Loss or lack of ability

to execute tasks requiring adequate visual
acuity is considered as visual disability. The
visually disabled, for the purpose of the
survey, include (a) those who do not have
any light perception - both eyes taken
together - and (b) those who have light
perception but cannot correctly count fingers
of a hand (with spectacles/contact lenses in
the case of those who are normally using
these) from a distance of 3 metres (or 10
feet) in good daylight with both eyes open.
2.2
Usual activity status: The usual
activity status relates to the activity status of
a person during a reference period of 365
days preceding the date of the survey. The
activity status on which a person spent
relatively longer time (major time criterion)
during the 365 days preceding the date of
survey is considered the principal usual
activity status of the person. The broad
principal usual activity status will be
obtained on the basis of a two-stage
dichotomous classification depending on the
major time spent. Persons will be classified
in the first stage into (i) those who are
engaged in any economic activity (i.e.
employed) and/or available for any
economic activity (i.e. unemployed) and (ii)
who are not engaged and not available for
any economic activity. In other words,
persons will be first classified as those in the
labour force and those not in the labour
force depending on which of the two
2.4 Hearing disability: This refers to

persons' inability to hear properly. Hearing
disability is to be judged taking into
consideration disability of the better ear but
without taking into consideration the use of
hearing aids (i.e. noting the position
obtaining for the person without the aids that
may be used).
2.5 Speech disability: This refers to
persons' inability to speak properly. Speech
of a person is judged to be disordered if the
persons speech is not understood by the
listeners, draws attention to the manner in
Chapter Two
Concepts and Definitions
which he speaks than to the meaning of

what he speaks and is aesthetically
unpleasant. Persons with speech disability
include those who cannot speak, those who
speak only a limited number of words those
with loss of voice. It also includes those
having speech but with defects in speech
such as stammering, nasal voice, hoarse
voice, discordant voice and articulation
defects, etc.
2.7 Ailment - illness or injury: Ailment,

i.e. illness or injury, mean any deviation
from the state of physical and mental wellbeing. In other words, one is treated as sick
if one feels sick. This also includes cases of
visual, hearing, speech, and locomotor
disabilities. Injuries covers all types of
damages,
such
as
cuts,
wounds,
haemorrhage, fractures and burns caused by
an accident, including bites to any part of
the body. An ailment may not cause any
necessity of hospitalisation, confinement to
bed or restricted activity. An ailing member
is a normal member of the household who is
suffering from any ailment during the
reference period. Cases of sterilisation,
insertion of IUD, getting MTP, etc.,
pregnancy and child birth are not treated as
cases of ailment. But abortion, natural or
accidental, is treated as an ailment. A case
of ailment is generally identified with a
specific cause and ailments from two
different causes are treated as two cases.
2.6 Locomotor disability: Locomotor

disability means (a) an individual's loss or
lack of ability to execute distinctive
activities associated with the movement of
himself and objects from place to place and
(b) physical deformities, other than those
involving the hand or leg or both , regardless
of whether the same caused loss or lack of
normal movement of body. Thus, persons
having locomotor disability are (a) those
with loss or absence or inactivity of whole
or part of hand or leg or both due to
amputation, paralysis, deformity and
dysfunction of joints and (b) those with
physical deformities in the body (other than
limbs) which do not affect normal
movement, such as hunch back, deformed
spine, etc.
2.8 Economic Independence: For the

purpose of the survey, a person is
considered economically independent if
he/she does not require to take financial help
from others in order to lead a normal life.
Chapter Three
Sample Design and Estimation Procedure

covering the entire geographical area of
the country.
3.1 Sample Design

3.1.0 General: A stratified two-stage
sample design was adopted in this round.
The first-stage units were the census
villages for the rural areas (panchayat
wards in case of Kerala) and the NSSO
Urban Frame Survey (UFS) blocks for
the urban areas. The second-stage units
were the households in both the cases.
3.1.3 Stratification for Rural areas: In

the rural areas, each district within a
region was treated as a separate stratum.
However, if the 1991 census population
of the district was found to be greater
than or equal to 2 million (1.8 million
population as per the 1981 census for
Jammu & Kashmir), the district was split
into two or more strata, by grouping
contiguous tehsils to form a stratum. In
Gujarat, in the case of districts extending
over more than one NSS region, the part
of a district falling within each NSS
region formed a separate stratum.
3.1.1 Sampling Frame for First-Stage

Units (FSUs): The lists of census
villages of the 1991 census (1981 census
list for Jammu & Kashmir) constituted
the sampling frame for the rural areas.
For Kerala, however, the list of
panchayat wards was used as the
sampling frame for the selection of firststage units in the rural areas. For
Nagaland, the villages located within 5
kms. of a bus route constituted the
sampling frame, whereas for Andaman
& Nicobar Islands, the list of
'accessible' villages formed the sampling
frame. For the urban areas, the list of
NSSO Urban Frame Survey (UFS)
blocks has been used as the sampling
frame.
3.1.4 Stratification for Urban areas: In

the urban areas, strata were formed,
within each NSS region, by grouping
towns on the basis of their population
size. The mode of forming the urban
strata is indicated in Table 3.1.

region

3
all towns with population 200,000 - 9,99,999
4, 5, . each city with population 10,00,000 or above
3.1.2 Stratification: For the socioeconomic surveys of the NSSO, each

State or Union Territory (UT) is divided
into one or more agro-climatic regions
by grouping contiguous districts which
are similar with respect to population
density and crop pattern. In Gujarat,
however, some districts are sub-divided
for the purpose of region formation on
the basis of location of dry areas and the
distribution of tribal population in the
State. In all, there are 78 regions
3.1.5 Allocation of First-Stage Units

(FSUs): A sample of 13,000 FSUs (rural
& urban combined) was selected as the
Central sample at the all-India level. The

combined for the Central sample for a

State/UT was allocated to its rural and
Chapter Three
large FSU was divided into a suitable

number of hamlet-groups/ sub-blocks
having equal population contents. Two
hamlet-groups were selected from each
large FSU in the rural areas and only one
sub-block was selected from each large
FSU in the urban areas.
The State-level rural sample size was

allocated to the rural strata in proportion
to their rural population figures as per
the census. Similarly, urban sample size
of the State/UT was allocated to the
urban strata in proportion to urban
population figures as per the census. All
the stratum-level allocations were
adjusted to multiples of 8 as far as
possible (otherwise to multiples of 4) in
order to allocate them equally in each
sub-sample X sub-round combination (2
sub-samples X 4 sub-rounds). The
number of first-stage units surveyed for
rural and urban areas of each State is
given in Table 3.2.
3.1.8 Selection of Households (SecondStage Units): In each of the selected

FSUs, three different enquiries, viz.
Survey on Health Care, Survey on
Participation in Education and Survey
on Consumer Expenditure, were
conducted on three independent samples
of households. For the present enquiry,
i.e. the survey on Health Care, a
sample of 10 households was selected
for the detailed enquiry. However,
before selection, the listed households
were first grouped into two second-stage
strata. The composition of the secondstage strata and the number of sample
households selected from each of them
are shown in Table 3.3. State/UT wise
number of households and aged persons
surveyed are given in Table 3.2.
3.1.6 Selection of First Stage Units:

The sample FSUs in the rural areas were
selected circular systematically with
equal probability. In the Union Territory
of Daman & Diu, the district Diu
consists of only two villages. These two
were selected for the survey in both the
Central and the State sample. Sample
blocks in the urban areas were also
equal probability. Sample FSUs of both
the rural and the urban areas were
selected in the form of two independent
sub-samples. The only departure from
the general procedure of selection of
FSUs was made for the rural areas of
Arunachal Pradesh, for which the
procedure of cluster sampling was
followed. The nucleus villages were
equal probability, in the form of two
independent sub-samples. A cluster,
generally of 4 to 6 villages, was formed
around each nucleus village. State/UT wise number of FSUs actually surveyed
is given in Table 3.2.

obtained, if required, by applying the
relevant survey-based ratios to the projected
population.
4.1
As mentioned earlier, the basic
objective of the survey was to assess the
nature and dimensions of the problems of
aged persons, that is, those of age 60 years
and above. For that purpose, information on
number of surviving children, living
arrangement,
economic
independence,
number of dependants, persons supporting
the aged, etc., were collected for the aged.
The results obtained from the survey are
presented in this report. In this chapter, the
main findings of the survey are discussed at
the all-India level. Similar estimates
obtained from the earlier survey carried out
during 1986-87 (NSS 42nd round) are also
placed side by side, wherever possible, to
give an idea about the changes over a period
of nine years.
4.4 Demographic burden: It has been

found from the census that the population of
the aged in India is rising rapidly. The
number of aged persons, which was 43.5
million in 1981, grew to 61.4 million in
1991. But the number of aged persons
obtained from the present survey was
substantially lower than even that of Census
1991. It was estimated at 46.4 million during
1995-96: about 25 per cent lower than the
figure for Census 1991. Among the aged,
about 78 per cent were residing in the rural
areas and 22 per cent in the urban areas. The
survey has also revealed that the aged are
concentrated in the rural areas. According to
the survey, for every 100 persons living in
rural India nearly 6 persons were aged as
against 5 per 1000 persons in urban India.
This fact is substantiated by the census
results given in Table 4.1. The overall share
of the aged in the total population in India
was 5.5 per cent. Male-female and ruralurban differences in the share are found to
exist and the differences are significant. The
share of the aged female, in general, was
higher than that of the aged male and was
also higher in the rural areas than in the
urban areas. This fact reflects the higher
expectancy of life of females and probably
the out-migration of the youth from rural
areas. An important phenomenon can be
observed that the share of the aged
population in the total according to censuses
or NSS surveys (except the 52nd round) has
4.2 About 7,663 villages covering 43,076

households and 4,991 urban blocks covering
29,807 households were surveyed in the
Central sample, i.e. the sample surveyed by
the NSSO. The results presented in this
report is based on the Central sample.
4.3 It may be noted that the population
estimates obtained from the NSS surveys, in
general are found to be lower than those of
the census or projections. The differences
are mainly due to differences in coverage
and methods adopted in the NSS from those
of the census operations. In this round, the
differences are likely to widen further due to
the selection of first-stage units (i.e. villages
and urban blocks) with equal probability.
However, the ratios obtained from the
survey are expected to be much closer to the
true ones. Thus, the marginal aggregates of
the population presented in the detailed
tables of the Appendix may be used only for

data, over the years.
increased significantly over the years.

According to the census data, the number of
the aged was 65 per 1000 persons in 1981
and rose to 74 in 1991. Although, the NSS
estimates are lower than those of the
censuses, they reveal a similar trend over the
rounds, except the present round (NSS
52nd) which shows a decline. In the 52nd
round, as the module of information was
integrated with the survey schedule on
Health Care, a separate design could not be
adopted to improve the estimates for the
aged. Secondly, there may be undercoverage of the aged due to under-reporting
of age.

Old-age dependency ratio: It
measures the responsibilities of the aged to
the working-age population. In our country,
generally, persons aged 15 to 59 years are
supposed to form the population of working
ages and at age 60, people generally retire or
withdraw themselves from work. Thus, the
population aged 60 and over divided by the
number aged 15 to 59 gives the old-age
dependency ratio. The old-age dependency
ratios (per 1000) are given in Table 4.1.1. It
may be seen that the old-age dependency
ratio is higher in rural than in urban areas.
According to the census, the ratio has
increased over time although the survey

4.5 Sex ratio : According to Census 1981,

there were 960 females for every 1000
males of age 60 and above. This number
dropped to 930 during 1991. The NSS
estimates, on the other hand, show a rising
trend. The trend is different in the rural and
urban areas. The sex ratio among the aged
declined during the period 1987-88 to 1993-

areas (see Table 4.2). In urban areas,
the sex ratio increased from 1032 in
1987-88 to 1060 in 1993-94 and then
dropped to 1043 in 1995-96. Some
studies have pointed out that the

feminine in the future owing to the
expected larger increment in the
longevity of females. [Tata Institute of

high as 58 and 61 per cent, respectively,
during 1995-96. The proportion of
widowers, on the other hand, was 18 per
cent in urban areas and 21 per cent in the
rural areas in 1993-94 and there was no
substantial change till 1995-96. The
never-married persons are perhaps more
adversely placed in the society as
compared to the widows so far as their
well-being in concerned. The nevermarried, though very small in proportion,
form 1 to 2 per cent among the aged in
India.

differences were negligible with

elderly who had surviving children.

in regard to the proportion of aged
persons having their children alive.

4.10 Economic support providers:

As has been observed in the earlier
paragraph, a large proportion of the
elderly are economically dependent on
others for their livelihood. It is,
therefore, pertinent to know who are the
persons providing economic support to
these elderly. Such information was
collected in the survey and the results
are presented in Table 4.7 separately for
each sex and sector at the all-India
level.
It is seen that of the
economically dependent aged, a
majority (about 74 per cent) had to
depend on their children and a sizable

4.12 In view of the fact that more than twothirds of the elderly people in our country
was dependent on others for their livelihood,
the question arises whether they worked to
maintain their livelihood and, if not, whether
they received any withdrawal or retirement
benefits from their past employment. This
information was collected in the survey and
is discussed below. It may be noted that the
usual (principal) activity status approach
was followed to identify whether a person
was working or not. According to this
approach, it is seen that nearly 40 per cent of
the elderly in India were working to earn
their livelihood. The rest neither did any
work nor were available for work as the
proportion of unemployed among the aged
was virtually nil. The work participation

also quite pronounced. In the

and among aged males, the WPR
was as high as 60 per cent -- even
much higher than that for the
overall population in rural India. In the
urban areas, on the other hand, although
there was a sharp difference in the WPR
between the aged males (35 per cent) and
the aged females (8 per cent), the WPR for
the aged and particularly for the males was
far below the WPR for the overall
population.
The reason for such a
differential phenomenon in rural and urban
India could partly be explained by the sector
and status of employment. In urban areas, a
significant proportion of the working
population is engaged in regular wage
employment and in this category, generally
there is a fixed age of superannuation and
people are protected by retirement benefits.
In rural areas, on the other hand, the scope

people mainly engage themselves in the
agriculture sector as self-employed. As
there is no age limit for superannuation in
this category, the people continue to work in
their farm and non-farm enterprises even
after the age of 60 years. This is also
evident from the distribution of workers by
activity status given in Table 4.9. Note that
the WPR among the aged was lower than

4.14 It has been observed that among the

aged, more than 60 per cent in the rural
areas and about 79 per cent in the urban
areas neither did any work nor were
available for work during 1995-96. In fact,
they were out of the labour force. They were
mostly engaged in household duties or were
receiving remittances, pensions, etc. Among
these aged people, about 51 to 55 per cent
had worked some time in the past (see Table
4.10). In the rural areas, about 58 per cent
of them had worked as self-employed and
the rest as regular wage earners or casual
labour. The corresponding percentages were
35 and 65, respectively, in the urban areas.
The rural-urban differences in the
distribution by status reflect the impact of
existing differences in the distribution of
workforce in these sectors.

these are given in Table 4.13 separately for

not all of those who have either financial

the aged had financial assets and were also
involved in taking decision to convert them

rural areas and 40 per cent in urban areas.

schedule on Health Care. In the schedule,
information on morbidity was collected in
detail for each household member
irrespective of age. In the module for the
aged, information on some specific chronic
diseases was also collected separately. It
appears from the results that for the survey
on aged persons, the strict definitions and
procedures were not followed to identify the
chronic diseases. Perhaps, a usual health
status concept had been followed. That is,
if one had suffered from any of the specified
chronic diseases any time in the past, he/she

4.17 Health status: Among other things,
information on some chronic diseases and
physical disabilities was collected for the
aged. These are discussed below.
4.17.1 Chronic ailments: Among the aged,
prevalence rates (per 1000) were obtained
for some specified chronic ailments and
20
Chapter Four
Main Findings
rates for the current round are much higher

than those of the 47th round. Perhaps, the
procedures followed, particularly the
probing, for identifying persons with
disability were not the same. In this round,
since multiple subjects were integrated in
one schedule and the main focus of the
survey was on morbidity in general,
informants perception about disability
seems to have been recorded in the schedule
without deep probing -- the reason why the
estimate of prevalence rate of various
disabilities among the aged are found
inexplicably high. It may be noted that
survey on physical disability was also
carried out in the 36th round (July-Dec.,
1981) and the estimates obtained from that
round closely compare with those from the
47th round.
had also been considered to be suffering

from that chronic disease irrespective of
whether or not he/she was suffering from the
chronic disease on the date of the survey.
The idea was that some of the chronic
diseases could be controlled but might not
be cured.
4.17.2 Physical disability : The prevalence (per 1000 person) of various physical
disabilities, viz. visual, hearing, speech and
locomotor, among the aged are given in
Table 4.14 for each sex at the all-India level.
The corresponding estimates obtained from
the last survey on disability (NSS 47th
round : July-Dec. 1991) have also been
given side by side. It is seen that the two
sets of estimates are quite divergent,
although the same concepts and definitions
were followed in these two rounds. The

matters has increased for both the sexes. In

the case of household chores, while the
participation decreased particularly in the
rural areas, the rate for the aged females
seems to have increased substantially
between the two surveys.
4.18 Familial integration : Information on

participation of aged persons in some
specific activities was collected. These were
activities relating to social matters, religious
matters and household chores. Number of
aged persons participating in these activities
are given in Table 4.15 at the all-India level.
Around 75 per cent of the aged participated
in social matters, 80 to 83 per cent in
religious matters and about 78 per cent of
the aged participated in household chores.
