- Chitradurga Assistant Commissioner Dr K.J.
- Kantharaj advised senior citizens to keep property in their own names until the end of their lives and not surrender it fully to children under pressure.
- Kantharaj was speaking at the inauguration of sports and cultural competitions held by the district administration on Thursday as part of World Senior Citizens' Day.
- Under the Maintenance and Welfare of Parents and Senior Citizens Act, seniors facing harassment or neglect by children or family can file a complaint directly with the Assistant Commissioner's court, even on a plain sheet of paper.
- Senior civil judge Shameer P. Nandyal said neglected elderly people can seek maintenance from their children under the Senior Citizens Act through the Assistant Commissioner's court or a civil court.

What to watch next
- Senior citizens with pending cases can approach the district legal services authority before the third National Lok Adalat on September 19 for early settlement.
- Legal services authorities will continue awareness and assistance programmes for seniors at district and taluk levels.
