Leading cause behind the grave concern being lack of quality education
ISLAMABAD: The problem of poverty should be a cause for grave concern as it affects the social and economic environment of Pakistan. We are all Pakistanis, therefore it is necessary for us to be concerned.
The life of the poor people in the country is harsh. Most of these people are in debts from generations. They have no medical insurance. They can’t pay their utility bills and are forced to live in uncomfortable situations. The main cause of poverty is unemployment or a lack of education. Poor families in the country choose to train them to work in order to earn money. When the income gap between the rich and the poor increases many problems arise as a result. All Pakistanis should raise voice for their rights and help get rid of poverty.
