    Subject: Regarding the problem of begging & how it can be ended.

    Sir/Madam
    Through the column of your esteemed newspaper, I, the undersigned Master/Ms XYZ, a member of AWAZ NGO ,
    would like to draw the kind attention of concerned authorities and general public towards the problem of begging &
    how it can be ended .
    Some beggars, no doubt, deserve our sympathy. They are handicapped. They are unable to earn their living. But the
    pity is that most of the beggars are able-bodied. Begging has become a profession for them. They find it the easiest
    way to earn their living. Some of them are criminals. They beg only to hide their crimes. This large-scales begging is a
    slur on the fair name of our country.
    Begging should be abolished by law. It should be made a punishable offence. The government should open asylums for
    those beggars who are really helpless. Able-bodied beggars should forced to work. If they go without work, they must
    also go without food. We should have no sympathy for such impostors. We should not encourage them by giving alms.
    People can thus play a big role in ending this evil.
    Therefore, I request you to publish this letter in your esteemed newspaper to make people aware of the problem of
    begging and think over a way to end it.
     
    Yours faithfully

    XYZ
    Member of AWAZ
