BEGGING BECOMES A FASHION

RAJIV NAYAN AGRAWAL

PATNA----------------------------"Begging is becoming fashionable these days for young women. They are coerced into giving money by being well-behaved and using their language and repeatedly requesting people to call them 'brother.'

This photo was taken from the chair car compartment of the Patna-Katihar Intercity Express. This girl was also using English words while asking for money.

When I asked her why she doesn't earn and why she begs despite being so physically and mentally fit, she said it was because of poverty. When I told her that begging is the alternative to poverty, she moved on...!!

I request all young men and women to never give alms to such girls and boys so that this evil practice can be stopped and not increased.
