Social Problems in Pakistan

A harmful social condition can be identified as a certain noxious factor in a society evoking distress and uncertainty. This harmful social condition becomes a social problem when a number of competing needs linger for long. Any country and its habitants have a crave for needs such as food, shelter and education that need to be fulfilled and in case they are not satisfied they become social enigmas’.

Today Pakistan is facing child labour, poverty, illiteracy, population growth, diseases, terrorism, smuggling, drug abuse, discrimination of sex, and deviant behavior as its social problems. 61.2% of Pakistanis are illiterate.

This thinking pattern and behavior initially has targeted the political setup making it a laughing stock not only for others but also for its own people as well. Many have considered this generating distrust of the government in dealing with the social issues as an act of self-preservation. It is not only the poor performance of political class but also the use of such sources that make there public image controversial.
