Begging prohibited in Hyderabad ahead of Ivanka Trump's visit


Hyderabad, Nov 8 (PTI): The Hyderabad Police has prohibited begging on the city's roads, saying it causes nuisance and danger to vehicular traffic and pedestrians.

In a notification issued on Tuesday, Hyderabad Police Commissioner M Mahendar Reddy said begging was causing nuisance, obstruction to free movement, danger to vehicular traffic and pedestrians and affecting the public order.

As per the notification, begging alms has been prohibited in public places and on the city's main road junctions for two months, from Wednesday morning till January 7, 2018.

Any person violating the order shall be liable for punishment under IPC Section 188 (disobedience to order duly promulgated by public servant), and relevant provisions of The Hyderabad City Police Act, The Telangana Prevention of Begging Act and The Juvenile Justice Act, 2000, the notification said.

    Solemn and silent begging is the right of a human in utter need...
    Forced begging and begging with force have to be stopped...
    If a person is hungry and desperate he or she has to beg rather than steel..

    Why stop the hungry and downtrodden???

    Ivanka trump must visit Madhya Pradesh, not Hyderabad.
    In Madhya Pradesh, there are no beggars.

    Madhya Pradesh streets are far better than U.S.A streets as per Shavaraj Singh Chuva-han. Slave Bhakts will believe.
