r2d2 Posted June 13, 2019 Report Posted June 13, 2019 Bihar government approves proposal for jail term for those who abandon elderly parents The cases against the wards will be registered under the non-bail able section in Bihar after receiving complaints from the elderly parents. Bihar government's proposal can be a gamechanger if it formally makes it compulsory for wards to look after parents. At a time when apathy both in urban and rural areas is high towards the elderly population, this will come as a shot in the arm for them. However, the practical problems regarding the implementation of such a rule are likely to be immense. Quote
