Child labor means work that has the power to deprive children of their childhood, and their dignity and is also harmful to their physical, moral, and mental development. The concept of child labor has been happening in the world overall, but in our state (Pakistan) has increased. 

            It is a global issue and creates a disturbance in the lives of children. On the other hand, children are considered as the future of their parents. Unfortunately, they are forced to appear in different areas such as factories, restaurants, shopping malls, and other sites to earn money to support their family members. 

            In fact, in Pakistan 8.10 children are out of school and in measurable condition. 

According to a recent report, more than 2, 4 million children are deprived of educational institutions.

            According to article 11, no child below the age of 14 years shall be engaged in any factory, mine, or other hazardous employment.

            Being a resident of Pakistan, it is requested of the government of Balochistan to provide facilities as they make their future bright and become a builder of their nations.
