यदि आप किसी वरिष्ठ नागरिक को किसी स्थान पर छोड़ देते हैं परित्याग करने के विचार से, और उनकी देखभाल नहीं करते हैं तो आपको इसके लिये तीन महीने तक का जेल और/या तो 5000 रुपये तक जुर्माने की सजा दी जा सकती है। पुलिस, किसी न्यायालय की अनुमति के बिना, गिरफ्तारी कर सकती है। फिर भी यह जमानती अपराध है। और यदि आप जमानती बॉण्ड अदा करते है तो आपको रिहा कर दिया जाएगा।

Legal Solution:
Sir, I’m very sorry to hear about your situation. What has been done to you is wrong and against the law. No one can force a person—especially a senior citizen—into a rehabilitation centre without medical proof and a proper legal order.
Here’s how you can get help:
1. File a Police Complaint
• Go to your nearest police station or call 📞 100.
• Clearly state that you were forcibly taken to a rehab centre without consent.
• You can also call the Delhi Police Senior Citizens Helpline at 📞 1291 for support.
2. Get a Free Lawyer
• You are eligible for free legal aid from the Delhi State Legal Services Authority (DLSA).
• Contact DLSA here:
o 📞 1516 (Toll-Free)
o 🌐 http://dslsa.org
• They will assign a trained advocate to represent you at no cost.
3. Legal Protection for Senior Citizens
• Under the Maintenance and Welfare of Parents and Senior Citizens Act, 2007, you have the legal right to live with dignity and without harassment.
• You can also file an application before the Sub-Divisional Magistrate (SDM) to seek protection from mistreatment.
Your Rights:
• You cannot be admitted to a rehab centre unless a doctor certifies it as medically necessary.
• Forcing someone without medical or legal reason is illegal detention.
