Authors
Gurdeep Singh, Satnam Singh Deol
Abstract
The article examines the nature as well as types and degree of the
violations of the rights of child beggars in India while focusing on its Punjab
State as a universe of study. Conducted through the empirical-observational
approach and taking into consideration the quantitative as well as qualitative
methods and techniques, the study reveals that pursuance of begging results
into the physical, emotional and psychological abuse of children. Moreover,
child beggars, especially the females, are more frequently and severely exposed
to sexual abuse, besides being victims of social neglect and economic
exploitation. Vulnerability of child beggars instigates from the level of
families and further exacerbated by the society due to its attitude of neglect
and state due to its lackadaisical approach.
