hEy!!!! After the construction of the new airport in sriperambuthur, it will become South Asia's largest; on the other hand, the number of beggars will also have multiplied for sure!.. So when you had to cross people on the road or when you wait in the signal, what do you do to them?????.....Being generous of all, do yu give some coins to them??? I guess this habit must be totally put down!... Do not feel sorry for those ladies carrying little kid tied up to her with her saree....(Seriously, am not any hard hearted or something) Instead, you can get that kid something to eat!... and those kids who go aroung begging are also deprived of whatever they get. To improve the social status of our country(INDIA),many should come forward to help these people revive a new life. so what kind are you?

Hi. I agree with you. I just couldn't understand why do these people choose to beg on the streets with their kids/babies. Most of them are physically fit to work and earn. I wonder if such is just a mere laziness or are they being forced to beg by some syndicates or other organized crime groups? I don't usually give alms to these beggars. But I do give food to beggars with disabilities. I never give money.

Hi soiree, it's so sad that there are so many beggars found in your place. It's really a great problem for the government to solve for sure. In our place people here are not encouraged to give money to beggars. This is the best way the authority concerned taken to stop people from getting easy money in the public. If there is any beggar found he will be sent to the old folk home for sure if he is an elderly person and really has no one to take care of him. Therefore we could hardly see any beggar idling along the busy streets or crowded areas. The disabled person or orphan will be sent to disabled center or orphanage accordingly. In case we come across any but rarely, we usually will buy food or drink for him if he really needs them Happy posting
