Some basis elements have affected the quality of life of every individual. Thus, various needs of the people such as the satisfaction of physical, psychological, sentimental and spiritual needs is called the quality of life, on the one hand, and the consumption of necessary basic needs for survival, on the other.According to R.C. Sharma. "The quality of life is a very complex concept as it involves the satisfaction of the emotional needs and social aspiration of the coummunity or society as well as the society's ability to meet the basic needs of food, energy, space, housing, etc. by itself."
But the meaning of quality of life is not only to get physical pleasure, peace and facilities. The quality of life of family and society is beyond imagination without statisfying the basic needs like food, clothes, housing, health, education, security etc. of people. Thus, to maintain the quality of life and to increase it alone with the basic needs, the psychological, and spiritual needs are incorporated.
