A privately-run old age home in Gugayanallur village in Tiruvalam near Katpadi will be sealed on Thursday by the District Social Welfare Officer (DSWO).
Collector P. Kumaravel Pandian has issued directions to officials of revenue and social welfare departments in this regard on Wednesday. This comes after a surprise inspection by a team of district social welfare and revenue officials to the home on Tuesday based on complaints that inmates were not treated properly.
