Begging is not a job, because it does not give anything to society. It makes a man devoid of any sense of self-respect. It leads him/her to the sub-human level. Begging does not develop a person's ability or wall to be a self-reliant. A nation of beggars respects nowhere rather it is spotted. So, it is regarded as a serious social problem as well as a crime of the thousands. The causes of beggar problem are not far to seek. Ours is a backward country. Our agriculture which is serious social problem as well as a crime of the country.
