SITE SELECTION CRITERIA SITE DETAILS
The site offers its northern scape covering the major highways, markets, AIIMS and
the upcoming metro lines. The presence of the site in the city creates opportunities
for improving their socialization. Statistics representing the high incidence of abuse of
elderly and the increasing number of senior citizens in Bhopal, justifies the importance
of the site. The close vicinity of the senior citizens to their families makes it accessible
for them.

The site near AIIMS offers maximum advantages and therefore is the most suitable
for the construction of a Senior Citizens’ Habitat. The other two sites while having

senior citizens. The elements of the site near AIIMS fulfills all the requirements to make
the project successful.
