MAINTENANCE AND WELFARE OF PARENTS AND SENIOR CITIZENS ACT, 2007

Maintenance and Welfare of Parents and Senior Citizens Act, 2007 - Delhi Maintenance and Welfare of Parents and Senior Citizens, Rules, 2009 -  

 Scope is to grant protection to the parents, including with respect to their property, it is not to punish the children and therefore, once it is established that the children have no right over the property of the parents, the fact that the parents do not wish to have their children staying with them is enough for invoking the Act and the Rules 

- A senior citizen is merely to show that his property needs protection and need not necessarily have to show that he/she needs maintenance or has been ill-treated by the son or other legal heir -
