  1. The Punjab Government should get more active in stopping child labour. The concept of restricting children below the age of 18 is not adhered to at all and there are many, many points which encourage children below this age to work for minimum payments just to help their families to survive. There is a blaring example of the Prince Saloon in Gulberg Mini market Lahore Pakistan which employees youngsters for working and allows massaging and other forms of treatment on the pretext of teaching them these skills. It is good for them to learn but for under age children to stay away the full night from their homes in the saloon is a matter of concern and should be looked into. The parents take their children out of school so they can help in survival as most often the fathers are drug addicts or alcoholics who have left their jobs. The CM Punjab is looking after Punjab like her child and she should address this matter of concern also. Thank you
