Scenario-Based Questions

Scenario Given: Rachna, a young girl who walks daily in her city, observes children begging at traffic signals. She wonders why these children are forced to beg and how she can help. Some believe generosity is the right approach, while others think it may encourage criminal gangs to exploit these children.

Questions:

1. Why do you think children are forced to beg? Explain your views.

Solution: There are many reasons behind this issue(children begging on the streets), such as extreme poverty, organised crime, child trafficking, lack of education, abandonment, and orphanhood.

2. What actions do you think Rachna can take to stop these children from begging? List five steps she can follow.

Solution: Here are a few steps Rachna can take to stop children from begging:

• She can inform the police and child protection agencies to familiarize them with the situation at the given location.
• She can work with NGOs that rescue and rehabilitate children.
• She can encourage people to donate to charities instead of giving money directly.
• She can collaborate with local businesses to provide jobs for poor families.
• She can create a support system with volunteers, activists, and local leaders.

3. Draw a sketch (A5-size box given) from the beggar child’s point of view. What do they see when begging around the vehicles?

Solution: Scenario of the street and traffic from the POV of a Beggar’s child.

4. What is the best course of action Rachna can take to overcome the current situation, and why do you think it is right?

Solution: Encouraging people to donate to charities instead of giving money to begging children would be the best action Rachna can take.
