 K.N. Ajith Pages. 144 Eeswaar Books Corporate dominance of global trade is neither new nor recent. Students of India’s history know that the East India Company was indeed a global trading corporation, chartered in December 1600 by Queen Elizabeth I to expand colonial markets. The Company quickly established military and administrative control over territories in India to dominate trade, especially in opium, tea, cotton, silk, and spices. In fact, English imperialism in India began as a form of corporate colonialism that lasted for 100 years following the East India Company’s victory in the Battle of Plassey in 1757. The Government of India Act of 1858 established the British Raj as the English monarchy’s surrogate to control colonial trade across the Indian subcontinent.

 T.K. Nair Pages. 166 Eeswaar Books The increasing elderly population in India raises many questions. How will we, and the future generations, deal with the challenges posed by the aging of our population? Can it be ensured that growing old will not mean, for the majority, a further sliding down into poverty and dependency? How can families be supported and strengthened so that they can provide good quality of care to the older members? How can the elderly be empowered to look after themselves effectively? Systematic planning and action are needed at the national and state levels particularly in the areas of health care, housing, income security, education and welfare in responding to the needs of the elderly.
