Ban on toy guns  

Letter February 26, 2018
It will definitely benefit the province

HYDERABAD: A child’s mind is impressionable and more often than not their understanding of what is good or not is shaped by the games they indulge in. Many studies have proven time and again that if children play violent games the likelihood of them growing up to become aggressive and violent themselves is very high. In the wake of this, the decision of the Sindh government imposing a ban on the manufacture, sale, purchase, use and display of toy guns and pistols is significant. It will definitely benefit the province.
