Good evening Isha. Thank you for sharing your paper with us. It is interesting that you are focusing on institutional care. I wonder if you could tell us a little bit more about the 22 old age homes in Pubjab. Are these homes similar in terms of their governance, accommodation, eligibility criteria, services and cost? Do they serve a particular group of older people historically or currently e.g. widows without surviving children or a particular faith group?
