Abstract

Aging is a universal fact and no society can escape it. Sociologically speaking, ageing is a series of transition from one set of social roles to another, which is structured by the social system rather than mere biological one. The concept of ‘ageing’ denotes three dimensions: Biological, psychological and social.
