Social Issues of Pakistan


Introduction :-
Although Pakistan is rich in resources but there are
many problems faced by Pakistan since
independence and has undergone a variety of crisis.
These issues could easily be solved but due to the
lack of attention from our government these
problems are rising day by day. Given below are
some of the major problems faced by Pakistan,
which are highly neglected by our government.
Poverty
A survey shows that Poverty rate of Pakistan has
increased 30% to 40% during the past ten years. It
means that about 40% of Pakistani population lacks
even the basic needs of life such as food, shelter
etc.
The solution of these problems faced by Pakistan
should have been on our government’s priority list.
Education
Unfortunately about half of the Pakistani population
is illiterate and this rate is expected to increase a
lot in future.
Government should pay attention towards this issue
because a country cannot progress without
providing basic education to its people. Poor
education rises negative perceptions.
Health Issues
Our country is facing severe health crisis. The rate
of diseases among poor families is increasing
noticeably. Government should pay a heed to this
life threatening issue and build new hospitals and
work for the betterment of the existing ones.
The first step to resolve this issue is to create basic
awareness of health and nutrition.
Corruption
Pakistan is suffering from a fatal problem known as
Corruption. Instead of eliminating this problem our
leaders itself are involved in it.
We need to remove corruption from its root if we
want our country to progress. Corruption should be
investigated powerfully without favoritism.
Life Security
Today in Pakistan, there is no security of our lives.
We continuously live under the threat of getting
killed in a blast or by a target killer.
While leaving the house, people are not sure
whether they will return safely or not. Our rulers
should make our country secure for a common man
so that he lives his life peacefully.
Justice
Unfortunately, Pakistan has a very poor judiciary
system. It works on money. Wealthy people don’t
get caught even after committing major crimes
however the poor ones face punishments, not
because of their crime but because of lack of
money due to which they could not bribe the
judiciary.
Government should work on this because a country
cannot survive without a fair judicial system.
Human Rights
Major parts of our country are rural, where most
people are illiterate. These people don’t know their
rights. Especially women are deprived of their rights
because of lack of awareness.
Living in a country where not even basic rights are
given to people sucks. Our rulers should make
efforts to provide the basic human rights to all
people.
Unemployment
Unemployment is another major problem in
Pakistan which must be considered by the
government. According to a survey about 5% of our
population is unemployed.
Unemployment gives rise to many other major
problems such as illiteracy and poverty.
Energy Crisis
Another major problem in Pakistan is of load
shedding. This situation is due to lack of electricity.
So instead of building roads and fly overs,
government should first build new dams and
turbines for the generation of electricity.
Refugees
A huge number of Afghan refugees are staying in
Pakistan. They live in slums and have no jobs. This
way they are increasing poverty and unemployment
rate in our country.
Government should provide these people with the
opportunity to work and to involve in the
betterment of the country. Also the government
should evaluate its political implications.
