  8. It is unclear exactly how many could lose access to #disability #benefits under the changes. Jack Smalligan, snr policy fellow at the Urban Institute & a fmr OMB official through 5 admins, wrote in a recent paper that if the proposed rule reduced eligibility for the disability program by 10%, 750k fewer people would receive benefits for all or part of the next decade. In addition, 80k fewer #widows & #children would receive benefits due to loss in eligibility of a spouse or parent.

    Water (Hindi: जल, romanized: Jal) is a 2005 drama film written and directed by Deepa Mehta, with screenplay by Anurag Kashyap. It is set in 1938 and explores the lives of widows at an ashram in India.

    Water is a dark introspect into the tales of rural Indian widows in the 1940s and covers controversial subjects such as child marriage, misogyny and ostracism.

    One of the widows tries to encourage a woman living on the streets to come to stay with her in a shelter. There is homelessness among the widows of #Vrindavan, and some are too traumatised by their past to be able to cope in the structured environment of a hostel.

    Vishakha Devi, 75, prays over a small oil lamp. The women often find strength through their faith. Most of the women are Hindu, although some are Sikhs. For many, spirituality becomes a source of resilience and they find solace through daily rituals and prayers.

    Clad mostly in white and abstaining from celebrations, widows can be seen as bad luck. Many do not have identity cards and cannot vote, so are ignored by the authorities, leaving them excluded from welfare and support services. Many women in #Vrindavan struggle with depression, loneliness and isolation. They can find it hard to make friends, often longing for their past lives and blaming themselves for their misfortune.
