The Governance of India by default does not endorse beggary either in principle or by law. In fact, begging is a prohibited activity across the country. However, beggary goes on unabated, unchecked and uncontrolled. In some cases, beggary has become a roaring business to make huge sums of cash which is lent for interest. Even the children are being used as tools in beggary and religious places are the prime targets across the country, exploiting the sentiments of the people. This is high time that India known for its ancient history and heritage, drive out beggary forever and set an example to the rest of the world. But how and by what ways and means to eliminate this begging culture in India.
The following steps are suggested:
1. Establish camps for beggars of all age groups and provide them
food and shelter in different parts of the country.
2. Prohibit beggary across the country not only on paper but in
practice with strict enforcement of the existing law.
3. Employ the beggars except the children to execute public works
which keep the country clean and green, hygienic, attractive,
productive, inviting as per the capability and suitability to their
age, gender, physical and mental abilities and skills.
4. Train them to accomplish the tasks assigned to them inculcating
the spirit of self reliance and not to live parasitic life.
