Human Rights Activism in Pakistan

The government plays an important role in our life. It provides security and support while expressing the hearts of the people; at least Asma Jahangir and Hina Jilani thought about their own Pakistan government before becoming a lawyer. Imagine that you live in a cage, become a victim of injustice, witness the injustice, and you know that you can not do anything about it. The core of the problem comes from the lack of government regulation. This is the feeling when Jahangir and Gillani were lawyers.

In September 2016, the Human Rights Council appointed Asma Jahangir (Pakistan) as the Special Rapporteur on the human rights situation in the Islamic Republic of Iran, as chairman of the Pakistan Supreme Court Bar Association and Pakistan Human Rights Commission. Over the years she has been nationally and internationally recognized for her contribution to the cause of human rights and has won an important human rights award. She has done extensive research on the rights of women, the protection of religious minorities, and the abolition of slave labor. She is a special rapporteur on roughly sentences and religious liberties.

Pakistan is part of a human rights watch in all countries. Human rights are infringed day by day, and innocent people are killed or even raped without doing anything. In Pakistan, women's rights are ignored and women are considered worthless. In current Pakistani culture, rape is an ordinary punishment when women insult their families. Because Pakistani culture is frequent, it is not a crime. Minorities in Pakistan

Child labor in Pakistan is a child working in Pakistan, which can cause mental, physical, moral and social harm. The Pakistani Human Rights Commission presumes that in the 1990s, 11 million children were working in this country. Half of them were under 10 years old. The average age of children entering the labor market in 1996 was 7 years, decreased from 8 years old in 1994. It is estimated that one quarter of the country's workforce is made up of children. As of 2005 to 2006, 37% of boys are estimated to work in wholesale and retail in urban areas, with 22% service, 22% continue manufacturing. 48% of girls belong to the service industry and 39% belong to the manufacturing industry. In rural areas, 82% of working men join 82% of girls working. In wholesale and retail trade, the proportion of girls is 11%, in the manufacturing industry 11%.
