Hey everyone! here i'm going to tell the situation of child labor in Pakistan. As everyone knows that Pakistan is not a developed country it is a developing country.It appears on the map of world as an independent country on 14 August 1947. After getting the freedom from British Government and Indian people Pakistan doesn't make progress in any field as much as the progress was important. So the poor people force their children into the curse of child labor to earn their livelihood.Because of very much bad circumstances and the 3 Pak-India wars (1948 , 1965 , 1971 ) Help more and more in perverting the circumstances. Economically Pakistan never stand on his foot. Internal and external enemies are always ready to attack on the weaknesses of the Pakistan. The people of Pakistan due to lack of education are also not aware the damages of child labor. The whole nation of Pakistan is involved in the case and this nation is promoting the child labor day by day. In Pakistan you can see every type of child laboring.Poverty is the main cause behind the child labour in Pakistan.In Pakistan a middle class person earns around $500 a day on average.The person has to feed nine or ten persons with their daily wage. So the children have to do work hard in order to meet the necessities of their families.
