Elderly people in Karnataka can dial toll-free number 14567
Amidst rising COVID-19 cases, the National Helpline for Senior Citizens, Karnataka, has set up a help desk for elderly people living alone.
Elders who are feeling lonely, isolated and emotionally disturbed, and in need of help due to COVID-19, can contact the helpline on the toll-free number 14567, stated a press release, adding that counselors and social workers will offer necessary support and guidance.

The High Court of Karnataka on Tuesday ordered the issue of a notice to the State government on a PIL petition, which had complained about disturbances caused to people residing in the localities around the National Public School situated in Rajajinagar 5th block due to use of loudspeakers with high volume in the school and parking of school buses in residential areas.
