If you are form Bangladesh or if you are visited Bangladesh you must hear some some popular word here i'm going to mention:
1. বাবা দুইডা টাহা ভিক্ষা দেন, ভাত খামু । (Hello, Please give me two taka, i will eat rice)
2. বাবারা আমি অসুস্থ মানুষ, কিছু করতে পারি না, দয়া করে আমাকে কিছু সাহায্য করেন। (Hello, I'm very sick, i can't do any thing for my life, please help me with some money)
3. ভিক্ষা দিলে দুনিয়াতে, ফল পাবেন আখিরাতে। (If you are use to help me in Earth, you will be rewarded for your spiritual life).
4. গবীবেরে ভিক্ষা দিলে, বাপ মা শান্তি পাইবো কবরে। (If you are use to help the poor, it will peach for your parent's who are died)
5. ভাই আমার মা খুব অসুস্থ, দয়া করে কিছু সাহায্য করুন ওনার চিকিৎসার জন্য। (Brother!! My mother is very sick, please help me some money for her treatment).
6. ভাই আমার বাবা, মা নেই, আমি এতিম, ঘরে আমার দুইটা ছোট ভাই বোন, আমার ভাই বোনদের খাবার জন্য দয়া করে আমাকে কিছু সাহায্য করুন। (Brother my parents had died, I am orphanage, I have two little brother and sister, Please help me some money that i can feed my brother and sister)
I can say that with guarantee you will not find a single person in our country who are not familiar with those sentence, Hope you are all able to understand what i'm going to talking about. Yes, i'm going to talking about the most hate-able profession, "Begging".
In our country day day Begging become our national problem, the increasing rate of beggar is so high. It quite impossible to find out any city, town, village, where you will not find beggar. Now a day's if we can make a statistic on it, begging will be the first choice-able profession for those people who live under poverty. Today i make count down after my office hour, sour rounding of my office are it was in Azampur in uttara, there was about 35 beggar, proportionally the number is really really very huge. At last when i'm was in bus, same girls, same dialogue, same article, in the same way she was begging, then i decided that i have to write on it. Because they are not begging for their physical problem, they not begging for their family needs, they are begging professionally. (Sorry for, some special cases, who are really physically unable to do anything).

If you are use to go in a certain area regularly, you will be notice a very interesting think, there have a group of beggar, they are use to begging this area by replacing their place, you will find there different ages beggar, some are child, some are old, some are middle ages, some women and some are special cases, special cases are not use to change their position, you will find them same place every day, for proving that they are begging for their physical disability, do you ever think about a matter, who are use take him early in the morning and how use to take him form there in night. This work is done by the beggar group. They have leader who use to lead them, and he is the decision maker, when and where they will going for begging and he take a percentage from those beggar. For taking percentage he giving the security and living place for them.
I think that they have very good training on how to begging, let share a example, one day in front of my office, in a tea shop, when i'm taking tea, i'm notice some poor child are gossiping together, after a while a boy come towards me, when i was showing them form distance they were very happy, they were laughing, but he come towards me, i just become surprise!! He just totally change his expression, few second ago he was laughing, but when he come in front of me and asking for two taka for eating, he was crying!!! and i just become confused that he is crying or laughing!! How it possible, within a some second switching one character to another. TV actor will be unable to doing this kind of switching expression, without a very perfect training it is quite impossible.
You will find some mobile beggar, why i'm telling them mobile beggar, they are used to begging in public bus and place where public are normally used to gather, they are very good presenter, it is really very difficult for any one presenting something in font of stranger, but they are presenting their their problem of life and begging for money, if you use to see on their eyes, you will notice that they are very confident, but they are telling lie, you will be confused to identify who are telling the truth who are telling lie, without training it also quite impossible to begging like this. Now a day's it is very common that some beggar are act like begging but there intention is doing crime.
Most of the beggar in our city, have physical ability to do something, but they are not interest to do something, because begging is very profitable business without investment, without hard work, they can earn a very good amount in the end of day, beggar who are use to begging, all of his family member use to begging, in the end of day it is a huge income totally more than we used to earn in a day. There have a lot of example in our country, beggar are millionaire, beggar have plot in dhaka, beggar have flat in dhaka, beggar son's or daughter study at private university, it's really so ridiculous.
For those reason, i introduce begging as profession. There have proverbs in English, If there is will, there is way. If you have a desire to do something you will find a lot of way for your livelihood. In our city if your are walking through after 5 minuses you have to meet with a beggar, every body asking for money, it's really bowing and disgusting.
This is the high to stop begging by taking some proper step of our government. otherwise this profession gonna be thread for our country very soon.
