Controversy Looms Over Anand Niketan Vridha Ashram in Noida

The Anand Niketan Vridha Ashram in Noida is under investigation after a video showed a caretaker tying an elderly woman's hands. The facility is scrutinized for lack of registration documents, and three residents have been relocated amidst poor living condition allegations. Authorities await compliance and further report.

The Gautam Buddh Nagar administration has announced a delay in its investigation of the Anand Niketan Vridha Ashram, a Noida-based old-age home, citing a lack of compliance from the management regarding registration documents.

This follows a viral video incident showing alleged mistreatment of an elderly woman, which triggered immediate inspections by the UP Women's Commission and Noida Police.

The facility, run by Jan Kalyan Trust since 1989, is alleged to operate without registration, prompting relocation of residents and raising questions about its management amid mixed reviews from current and past residents.
