Dance of poverty, Traffic and Traffic lights

Yesterday,my Dad came for some official work in Gurgaon, He had some meeting and all that stuff, so i took an off from my work and was the official driver of the day...Though i love driving but driving in Delhi is a hellish experience .......its a complete nightmare.....!!!
So, as we started a bit late in the morning in order to avoid the office hour traffic.But unfortunately there was a flood of cars on the road, huge traffic jams on DND, on the ring road,and every place of Delhi and NCR. It appeared as though a river of cars flowing on the roads. There was no end to the traffic...Cars moving bumper to bumper as if tryin hard to crawl on the road. Inspite of all the pain, some people cannot stop themselves from changing one lane to another.
Anyways, as we were moving or crawling towards our destination, we stoped at one of the red lights . As usual the salesman, the booksellers, the flower seller and of course the beggars knocking at our window panes. It is a regular site for all the commuters stopping at traffic signals.
What caught my attention was actually a SITE, it just happened that a shabbily dressed girl, knocked at my window to grab my attention and as usual asked for money.Though i never look into their eyes, but on that day i looked at her and told her No.Soon the girl went from one car to another, finally she stood near a car, with a chauffeur and a man sitting at the back seat. The girl tried reluctantly hard to get some money but the man instead of a SIMPLE NO, opened the door of his car and hit it hard at her that she fell on the other car,soon the traffic started moving and she had a narrow escape from death.
Though i am not patronising the beggars here but IS this Humane.................???
I don't know what state of mind was that man in...?that it made him do so.......... but the question here is Why did he consider her life to be worthless.................???
If something happened to that girl who would be held responsible for it......???
Though these people do all the tricks in order to grab attention, they swap their kids, steal , put bandages etc......to show their misery and gain sympathy.
The dance of Poverty can be seen on every nook and corner but its highly visible on these red lights. These kids are born there, their parents, grandparents, and their siblings are into this profession only. These kids ,right from the young age have mastered the art of begging.
Though whatever meagre amount they earn, is the only source of income for the family.

I am not aiming this post for requesting public or asking NGO's to work on this direction or start giving them money. Neither am i askin to help them come out of this poverty and brutal life. But it was a sight that made me SAD, it showed that some of us do not have a heart even to say a simple No.
It was hangover that will be with me for days to come......
I simply fail to understand why some people behave so brutally......!!!!!!!!!!!!!
