Beggars in India: Reason and solutions
Begging has become a common sight in traffic signals, popular visiting sites, etc. It seems the population of beggars is increasing everyday. Beggars tend to have more kids than an average Indian as they are used for begging. Can this be justified?
THOUGH WE are working to remove poverty since a long time yet we didn’t get the desired result. The only reason we are not getting the desired result is because we are fighting with the disease rather than trying to find the cause of it.

One such issue is children’s right in India. How the society can allow the beggars to produce babies for whom they can't secure basic needs. If they don't have right to adopt babies than how can they be allowed to produce them. Even if they are given this right as they are human beings, than how many lives they should be allowed to ruin. They tend to have more kids than an average Indian as the kids are used for begging. Can this be justified?

The government and the non-government organisations are doing their efforts for their education and health but what about food and career? How can we stop them from begging as they can't have food without begging? They are not even supposed to work as it is against the law. We all need to fight against this evil of begging in the society. We all need to work together and spread the awareness about it.

.Let's give one more last chance to Mr. Madhu Koda - yes, he is deep neck into problems - however, if he is sincere in getting rid of poverty from the State of Jharkhand and declaring Jharkhand State as number one State in the country to have gotten rid of beggars, he deserves to be pardoned. Whatever money he has accummulated and stashed in various accounts throughout the world are brought to India and utilised in uplifting the poor of the poorest in the State of Jharkhand Mr. koda deserves support. The situation of Mr. Koda is similar to that of Mr. Harshad Mehta who had free acess to any cash vault of any Bank in India and he also pleaded innocence once got caught and was booked in over 100 cases - ultimately, what happened - the case went one one after the another and soon he had to commit suicide without a single pie coming back properly into the mainstream. A similar situation should be avoided in Mr. Koda's case and he should be helped to the extent possible in bringing back every pie that has gone away back into the mainstream mainly into the Social welfare schemes of making Jharkhand State a beggar free State. Let's hope this message gets across properly.
.The fundamental duties of Indian citizens under our constitution must be amended to include: Parents to take care of children they beget. Now children are obligated to take care of parents and senior citizens. Till fourteen it should be the duty of parents. Otherwise do not beget children!!
.First, I can't believe there is a that law prohibits beggars from work. Maybe we should re-look at the possibilities for useful employment of beggars. Some noteworthy cases are known:- a bunch of street kids now have set up their own snack bar. Some time earlier a few of them were employed to assist traffic police who are in great shortage in the country. Helping run new public sanitation facilities is another possibility.

The law is for the children of beggars that prohibits them from working. If their parents left them for begging, they can't work as per law. The law doesn't seem to have any problem letting them beg.

.Very Thoughtful, Children are the future of India and the beggars should not be allowed to produce babies who left them for begging.
