            Child labor is one of the biggest issues in Pakistan. Where right now 60.6 percent of children in Sindh are out of school between the ages of 5 to 14. More than 11 million children in Pakistan perform domestic tasks and work in agriculture. The United nation children's education fund believes that children at the age of 4 to 14 make up 90 percent of their education. In Pakistan, many children are not attending school 3.3 million Pakistani children are laborers.

            At last, I want to request the Prime minister of Pakistan to focus on sending the children to schools instead of raising the economy by using them for the progression of the country.
