An empathetic gesture from a compassionate government.
A 78 year old Senior citizen, Chandramathi Amma was left over the moon when her adalat seeking protection finally bore fruits. She has been placed under protection in Gandhi Bhavan, Pulliyoor where her healthcare, pension and other benefits will be arranged. Life took a drastic turn for Chandramathi when she approached the adalat revealing that she is no longer able to attend to her son who is mentally challenged. As soon as the news reached the ears of Minister Saji Cheriyan , he took the initiative to make the call to Gandhi Bhavan himself leading to this remarkable result.
Under the watch of the Ministry Of Social Justice and Empowerment, Chandramathi was shifted to Gandhi Bhavan. Previously, Chandramathi and her son were residents of Chunakkara. Subsequently, they moved into the neighbourhood in Thekkekara which was registered in the name of her son.
Life turned bitter for Chandramathi amma when she was widowed four years ago. The wound deepened after her son started showing symptoms of mental illness. Her son would leave the house often. The Minister provided directions to locate the son and rehabilitate him at the earliest.
