More responsibility lies on the federal government for the legislation on human trafficking
Karachi, Sindh
Provincial Minister for Local Government and Public Health Engineering Syed Nasir Hussain Shah has said that there is dire need to frame by-laws on child labor and bonded labor not only in Sindh but in the entire country.
He said this today while addressing an event organized in a local hotel in Karachi on Thursday.
Nasir Shah said that child labor, forced labor and human trafficking are unpardonable crimes and are a scourge on society, so it is necessary to have strict legislation to eradicate them.
He added that the incidents of violence against children are increasing day by day in the society, which needs to be combated. “Therefore, we all have to work together, it is not only the responsibility of the government, but the responsibility of every member of the society and this responsibility is also imposed on non-governmental social organizations working in this regard.”
Nasir Shah praised the Sustainable Social Development Organization for its initiatives in this regard and said that its recommendations will be considered to incorporate in the next budget.
He said that abuses against children are a scourge of society and cause of shame and infamy. He added that more responsibility lies on the federal government in the legislation on human trafficking.
Other officials also addressed the event. (PR)
