India is engulfed with many problems and begging is one of them. Statistics reveal that about half a million people in our country are beggars. Here is a look at the way these beggars lead their lives and what invokes them to choose begging as a way of life.
Beggars Lead a Miserable Life
Beggars in India lead an extremely miserable life. They are seen draped in shabby and torn clothes and are mostly barefoot. Irrespective of the season, beggars are seen clad in minimal clothing. It is heart-wrenching to see small kids with bare minimal clothes seeking alms and food in extreme weather conditions. Pregnant women and those carrying small kids in their arms and a bowl in their hand asking for money and food to eat is also a common sight in India.
Elderly and physically handicapped beggars are seen sitting on wheel chair asking people for help. These beggars do not have any home. Even the people living in the slum areas deny permission to them. They mostly lead their lives on the footpath begging and trying hard to make their ends meet. The extreme weather conditions of our country make things all the more worse for them. Many of these beggars fall sick and die due to extreme cold, hot and rain.

A beggar moves from street to street, village to village and locality to locality. He begs for alms, money, food, etc. Sometimes, he asks for clothes. He accepts happily whatever he is offered. Some beggars insist for more money and cause irritation to people. He even goes on to pursue the man to fulfill his demands.

Some beggars have bowls in their hands. Many beggars move with the help of a stick. Some beggars are disabled and they are carried in a cart by another beggar. Beggars generally call the name of God. The beggars are well-versed in the art of singing religious songs. They sing in such a pathetic voice that it evokes pity for them. They instantly draw the attention of the people.

Begging is justified in case of crippled, incapacitated and handicapped beggars. But often some healthy men begin to beg who do not deserve charity at all. Such beggars should not be given any alms.

Such beggars generally go out for begging when male members of the house are at their work and only ladies are at home. In the name of begging they cheat women, often they intrude their houses and rob them.
