23.  Awareness must be raised and parents should
pay attention to the education of their children.
 Child LABOUR Laws should be strictly put into
practice, and then our country can easily get
rid of this problem.
 we should to distribute the education free of
cost, give flame to the candle of education and
distribute the light of knowledge among the
people

24.  The Employee Children Act, 1991
 The Bonded Labour System Abolition
Act, 1992;
 Punjab Compulsory Education Act
1994
 The government gave free books to
primary schools so parents with
limited budgets are now able to send
their children to schools

25.  NO laws are enforced
 The Pakistan Parliament is a part of the
elite, so they pay no taxes and don’t want to
make any changes to the system

26.  On 12 June, people around the world join
hands to mark the World Day Against
Child Labour – to raise awareness and
contribute to ending child labour .

27.  Child labours are working not the choice
of their own. They are the victims of their
circumstances and we are taking benefit
of their compulsions.
 These children are working as a LABOUR
in school going age for the survival of
their families and to full fill the basic
necessities.
 Government should provide the basic
rights to these children and should also
help them in getting education in this way
our country can get rid of social evil.

28. When the sun falls, and the moon comes bright
The shadow falls all over my life,
They say life is a struggle to strive for the best
For me it’s a few hours of rest…
I don’t need your love, I don’t need your sympathy
Just give me a penny,
to fill my stomach which is for a day empty.
Don’t know what lies in the future can’t say what lies ahead
Why I was born, I always regret…
My dream of life oh God, bless me with four shoulders
What can take me to ultimate heights…
Don’t hurt me, don’t laugh at me
I’m your mere reflection, give me some dignity…
