The National Taskforce on Beggars will be engaged in the evenings to ensure that beggars are not out on the streets to beg.
Minister for Women, Children and Poverty Alleviation Rosy Sofia Akbar says everyday new people come out on the streets and some people prefer to beg.
Akbar is calling on the public to refrain from giving money to the street beggars so that their campaign can work.
She adds people should go to the Ministry for assistance instead of begging on the streets.
Akbar says the taskforce is trying its best to ensure that people who beg are assisted.
