Background
Beggary is the act of soliciting or receiving alms in a public place for earning livelihood, whether or not under any pretense such as singing, dancing, fortune-telling, performing or offering any article for sale. This act forms the source for labour disrespect decrease of human respect and damage of social and individual structure through violation of a number of humanitarian and religious feelings. For that reason, beggary stands before us as a psycho-social problem that has to be fought against and solved.
Beggary is the consequence of destitution, a situation of extreme vulnerability with multiple dimensions. Persons experiencing destitution live in a vicious cycle of poverty, homelessness, powerlessness, stigmatization, discrimination, exclusion and material deprivation, all of which mutually reinforce each other. Poverty or abandonment amongst homeless persons, persons affected with leprosy, the differently abled, persons with mental disabilities, the old, infirm and others in similar situations forced many people to adhere to begging. A substantial percentage of people who are found begging are persons with disability, infirm or affected by illnesses such as leprosy.
State laws on begging differ fundamentally in their approach towards the treatment of children found seeking alms. Under the Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act, 2015, children found begging are treated as victims in need of care and protection to be dealt with by child welfare committees. Some of the state laws, on the other hand, treat them as criminals who can be sent to an institution. The Beggars (Protection, Care and Rehabilitation) Model Bill of 2016 aims to set up a rehabilitative framework for people found begging. It does not criminalize begging, other than for repeated and organized begging, and does not allow for detention of dependents. It focuses instead on providing protection, care and support.
In order to bring the destitute section of the society indulged in the act of begging to the mainstream, Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment has started a National Campaign for Comprehensive rehabilitation of People currently engaged in Begging. In the first phase of the Campaign Indore has been selected among the 10 cities nationwide.
