KARACHI:
Pakisan’s first and only National Child Labour Survey (1996) revealed that over 3.3 million children in the country were trapped in child labour, a quarter-of-a-century ago. More than two decades later, although the number of children in the workforce has surged exponentially, the unavailability of updated statistics has been a major obstacle for child rights advocacy.
However, after a painful gap of 25 years, the provincial government has finally started working on conducting a fresh child labour survey, preparations for which are reported to be underway.
