A high percentage were having poor vision and chronic diseases. Only a small percentage of them were found to be having severe degree of dementia and depression. But a significant proportion of them had the milder forms of those conditions. Their social status was very poor and a very high percentage of them had low level of contact with social activities except for the religious activities.
