With the current inflation level for commodities and especially with the exorbitant rise in the prices of foodgrains, sugar, vegetables, fruits, milk, etc. There is hardly anything left with the society. Once the prices go up they never come down in spite of favourable conditions in the sector.
For senior citizens like me, the outgo in the form of medical expenses, etc. have gone up tremendously.
Therefore, there is a need to raise the tax exemption limit substantially. Otherwise, you will see so many suicide cases in the cities and villages.
Very little is being done for the senior citizens of this country. It is high time that the government thinks of some sort of a pension scheme and medical facility so that the large number of citizens in this country can manage their lives with respect and dignity.
