Mysuru: An elderly woman, whose name was known, but sadly counted in the ‘Missing Person’ list is the story of most of the aged in the country today. Padmavathi (75) passed away in city on June 14. However, she did not die a lonely, neglected person. Thanks to the humanitarian work being carried out by M.S. Sushma, Founder-Director of Jana Seva Trust that has established Chiguru for the mentally challenged women and destitute women and children.
The saga of Padmavathi began last year, when she was brought to a hospital in Kuvempunagar, by her callous relatives in May 2016. They escaped leaving her in the lurch. After a few days of treatment in the hospital, the authorities there got in touch with Sushma, who shifted the old woman to her Centre.
