Ashish Sharma set on foot in August last and has since covered around 17,000 kms spreading the message of making India child begging free. "I felt that when the child is not happy, how can we all be happy", Ashish said, while saying that he had quit his job at Sonipat in 2015 to bring about a psychological change in the country.
During an interaction with the media here on Thursday, Sharma made a fervent plea to the people to stop giving alms to the children so that they can go to school.
He
has so far covered around 49,000 villages in 29 states and seven union territories and intends to cover the entire country by next year before returning to Delhi to hold a massive rally for the eradication of child labour and child begging in the country.
