    They know the coastal people are always good at heart and believe very easily whatever the story, so can be fooled at ease. We coastal people should be careful.

    Now everyone started to tell fake stories, cheating. Even in main bus stands a lady will come with child and collecting money. In every bus she will collect 50 to 100 Rs. Same thing she will do in many buses. Just imagine how much she will collect per day. Even they able to work do not like to do hard work . Before I was pity to them but now I stopped giving them money. Better give who realy sick and can't walk. Actually we only made habit of giving them and they earning easy money. After collecting money they will go to buy alchohol.
