Gehlot said the government had been thinking of coming up with a comprehensive national policy for senior citizens to ensure their welfare since October last year.
“Keeping in mind the change in the socio-economic conditions in our society, programmes and policies were being re-framed to ensure their (senior citizens) well-being,” he said, adding that the new policy for senior citizens would replace the existing one.
The new policy would provide better facilities to senior citizens living across the country.
The government has already sought suggestions from NGOs and other stakeholders for this purpose, the minister added.
