However, the older people always struggle in using the smart phones, laptops because of its technicality and lack of knowledge. For example, there are various hi-tech apps in one/a mobile phone like WhatsApp, Camera, Messaging, Facebook etc. it appears so difficult for them to understand the cumbersome gadgets on their own.

I think you didnt mention 'how' elderly findit to difficult in learning these new skills. You may say the senior friends have chronic neck pain, decreased sensitivity of eye sight, slower muscle movement etc, these make them far behind other generations when coping with technological advancement

there is a pressing need

I think that the word "victim" is wrongly used.

Your conclusion must specifically refer to the elders, and restate summary again.

Clearly you have written under the required word count, and it is likely that you will be penalized for this fault.
Your second paragraph does not seem to delve much into the reasons behind the difficulties that the elderly often find when they use hi-tech devices. It looks a bit facile.
