As the number of elderly people in India continues to rise, it is becoming increasingly important to address the linked difficulties of maintaining both physical and psychological well-being. Within the context of India's ageing population, particularly in rural areas, this study investigates the relationship between physical health and mental well-being in senior adults, with a particular emphasis on the specific issues that are experienced by this group.
