70-Year-Old Karnataka Woman Reunited with Family Using AI and Community SupportPreviousNext

A 70-year-old woman from Karnataka who suffered memory loss after boarding the wrong vehicle was reunited with her family after 16 days. Authorities in Maharashtra's Palghar district cared for her at a local shelter while the Jeevan Aanand Sanstha (JAS) team used Google Search, ChatGPT, and local community networks to trace her relatives. The effort culminated in her daughters and other family members taking her home on October 22, highlighting the combined role of technology and community support.
