| Abstract: | “Population ageing” was one of the most distinctive demographic events of the twentieth century. It will surely remain important throughout the twenty-first century. Today 60% of those aged above 60 years live in developing countries and their proportion will increase to 80% by 2050. The elderly population in India accounts for 7.4% of the total population. |
