| Jul 24, 2014 at 23:27 | comment | added | gparyani | Give them some 5-paise coins. They are not valid in India as legal tender anymore, and most real beggars are not smart enough to reject them. If they reject them, it's likely a scam. | |

Just a simple smile and hello would make hem blush and they would be more than happy to help you if you need... Thats INDIA... | |

add the beggars tag from the merged question. india+safety really doesn't cover the scope of the merged question

since this has been merged with "Is it bad to give money to beggars in India?" the old title "How to defend yourself from paupers in India?" is too negatively biased - changing to something more neutral

| Jul 5, 2011 at 9:05 | comment | added | hippietrail | I was dressed cheaply and travelled cheaply and I was mostly annoyed by rickshaw drivers. Sometimes a gaggle of them. As for beggars they mostly haunt the tourist areas so they did pester me a lot in those places. They know the locals are immune to their scams. Going on back roads one or two blocks away I was treated as a curiosity rather than as a money tree. | |
| Jun 28, 2011 at 22:26 | comment | added | Ankur Banerjee | By the way, in India they are referred to as 'beggars'. Paupers is an archaic term which many may not understand in India. | |

| Jun 21, 2011 at 22:50 | comment | added | Ciaocibai | I don't have any specific advice to answer your question, but on my travels there I was very rarely troubled by anyone. Not sure if it helped or not, but I was dressed and travelled very cheaply, so maybe they didn't think I was worth bothering! | |
