Socially accepted crime

Today Pakistan is facing a lot of social problemsbut some are very common in Pakistan, whichare destroying our society and also economy ofPakistan.

Child labour is a global issue. Child labour is one of the most common

problems in Asia and also in Pakistan

Child Labour” is work for children that harms them or exploits them in some way e.g.

Physically Mentally morally or blocking access to education

In Pakistan children aged 5-14 are above 40 million. During the last year, the Federal Bureau of Statistics released the results of its survey funded by ILO’s IPEC. The findings were that3.8 million children age group of 5-14 years areworking in Pakistan out of total 40 millionchildren in this age group

fifty percent of these economically active children are in age group of 5 to 9 years. Even out of these 3.8 million economically active children, 2.7 million were claimed to be workingin the agriculture sector. 73% of them were saidto be boys

30% of our country’s total population is leading life below the poverty-line, in which the people are deprived ofbasic necessities of life like clothing, shelter, food,education and medication, the children of these peoplewill be forced to become Labourers' or workers in order tosurvive.

Our people are not aware of the importance of education. Class-based education system is another reason for increasing child Labour as a result, child Labour is increase in rural areas.

The government has not put its laws into practice to stop child Labour in our country that’s why child labour is increasing day by day.

The children are working as a labour in school going age for the survival of therefamilies and to full fill the basicnecessities.

People don’t know the importance of education. That’s why most of children remain illiterate.

Awareness must be raised and parents should pay attention to the education of their children.

Child Labour Laws should be strictly put into practice

If we want success then we have to act upon these principles and then our country can easily get rid of this problem.

We have to distribute the education free of coast, give flame to the candle ofeducation and distribute the light ofknowledge among the people asour Holy prophet (PBUH) also says that“get knowledge and distribute amongothers.”
