Abstract
The paper attempts to explore different forms of suffering that the elderly (60 years and above) in Kashmir face within families and the broader society. It argues that the changes which the society has witnessed over a period of time have created an atmosphere of individualism and opportunism among the youth and a spontaneous hostility towards the elderly. The sociocultural and religious values of Kashmiri society situated the elderly at a dignified place; however, the recent advancements within the society and the lack of preparedness to deal with the subsequent challenges have further marginalized and alienated the elderly in and outside the family setting. The paper draws its inferences from the oral narratives conducted with 50 elderly persons and 10 semi-structured interviews with different resource persons.
