Woman earns Rs 2.5 lakh in 45 days by forcing children to beg in Indore

Indore: A 40-year-old woman has managed to earn Rs 2.5 lakh in just 45 days by forcing her eight-year-old daughter and two sons to beg on the streets of Indore. The woman’s family, who are part of a group of around 150 people involved in begging in the city, owned land and a two-storey house in Rajasthan, an NGO has



claimed.

“The woman, Indra Bai, was recently found begging at the Luv-Kush intersection on the Indore-Ujjain road. We found cash to the tune of Rs 19,200 in her possession,” Rupali Jain, president of Pravesh, an organisation working with the administration to make Indore a beggar-free city, told PTI on Tuesday.
