"ZERO RELIEF" in BUDGET- SENIOR CITIZEN/PENSIONERS

Who cares for Senior Citizen/ Pensioners in India ...
Proof is in the current Budget ....

1. No relief from Tax on Bank/PO/MF Deposits to Senior Citizen.

2. No relief in Tax Limits to Senior Citizen in the Budget.

Senior Citizen are left in lurch to fend for themselves with their meagre pension/income, paying tax on anything more than Rs.3L per year .... Who cares ??? more

As Sri Jagannatha Rao garu mentioned, there were 3 slabs but now those three slabs have been merged into one. There is no loss for senior citizens. Others have gained, but why should that be a problem for us? more  
Actually until recent past, there were 3 berths of IT exemption limits, 1) for Men below 60 yrs.' 2) for women below 60 yrs. & 3) for any (Senior Citizen) person (male or female) 60yrs n above. Eventually, 2) higher exemption limit for women below 60 yrs was quitely withdrawn in one of the recent budgets n now also no. 3 (Sr.Citizen) is also quitely withdrawn. We need to present an on-line petition thru change.org immediately as already suggested by few here. more

So many stories can be told. But who will come forward to listen the problems of Sr Citizens. I pray God that dont make Sr Citizens henceforth as no one is there to listen the agony of Sr Citizens. Your work will be Reduced in making Sr Citizens but your early work........... more  
In the recent budget, there is no mention of exemption in Income Tax for Senior Citizens, upto Rs.3 lacs. Is it being withdrawn or my interpretation is wrong ? more
