Eunuchs in India is just a well planned begging business nothing else. I read a book about them, it was something data collection and analysis type book.
Some facts stated in the book are very interesting.
1. Eunuchs, as majority believe are not at all Eunuchs by birth. They born just as normal as you and me. I remember a Dr. saying in the book that he has not observed any baby born as an Eunuch. He was further saying if there are so many Eunuchs born in any society than it should be a matter of scientific studies. There should be some gentical disorder in the whole society if it is producing such a large number of Eunuchs.

So are they 'made' Eunuchs?

Some think that the large gangs of Eunuchs steal babies and by circumcising some organs they are made Eunuchs.
Fact is yes, these gangs can steal babies (mostly Boys and mainly from very poor families)and develop them to behave like Eunuchs. They are taught to sing and dance and clap to make them perfect Eunuchs. And then just throw these grown ups in the most profitable Begging Business.
These gangs made a cult type pattern of themselves. These cults have to follow some strict rituals only to keep others at bay. So that they can continue with their business without any problem by the society.
Besides begging the Eunuchs are used by homosexuals for their pleasure.
They are also used in drug trafficking as normally nobody dares to touch them.
These are just poor souls always used by some very clever people for their own purpose.
May be a longest post in my QL life...sorry for the grammar....
