Safdarjung New Delhi 12th June 2023 The Editor The New India News New Delhi Subject: Issue of lack of security and attacks on old people Sir/Madam I am a resident of Safdarjung and through the columns of your esteemed newspaper, I’d like to bring attention to the issue of elderly abuse. Physically, the elderly are often frail. As a result, they can’t face the rogues who usually come to rob them. Any opposition from the elderly can be dangerous to their wellbeing. Many incidences of robbery, pickpocketing, and severe attacks on the elderly have occurred in the Safdarjung Area. Recently, an old aged couple was hacked to death in broad daylight. This has created fear among the seniors.It is the government’s responsibility to safeguard the lives of senior residents. I suggest that the resident welfare associations should form small groups which visit the lonely couples a few times a day and keep a check on their wellbeing. Unfortunately, there has been no action despite many inquiries and requests to the authorities. Perhaps the words in your prestigious publication will do the needful. Thank you Yours truly Naresh / Nandini
