Life is a progression from young to old. Aging is a complicated process that most influences the biological, psychological and sociological functioning of the organism; it is a normative process and not a fixed dimension of the human life cycle. Like all previous life stages, aging consists of a series of status passages. A main concept in any discussion ageing is the meaning of age itself. Elderly as per the United Nations are referred to as the people of 60 year of age and above. In India also they are described as persons of sixty years and above (Prasad, 2017). Another major challenge of population aging in India is income and housing security for Aged. This is due in part to a changing social and economic landscape in which the traditional family support system is diluted and depleted in the households of many older adults (Alam, James et al., 2012).
