Poverty:Poverty is one of the major social problem Pakistan is facing. Itis one of the most important and sensitive issue not only for ourself but for the whole world. Poverty can cause other socialproblems like theft, bribe, corruption, adultery, lawlessness,injustice. To eradicate the evils of society we have to fight withpoverty. We can't control theft by enrolling thousands of police

men. Corruption and injustice can't come to an end throughtight legislation but by demolishing poverty. A low level of domestic income for an individual results in lackof access to education, health care, and other communalfacilities like lake of sanitation, transportation andcommunication. The poverty of thought is the major socialproblem. To eradicate poverty in Pakistan we have to fight withthe causes and factors of poverty. Unless the causes and factorsof poverty will be settled the poverty will never end.Ignorance is one of the important aspect of poverty

Terrorism:Terrorism- either by the state or by the non state actors, is thecruelest of crimes which kills less criminals but more innocentcitizens. Terrorism has no absolute and globally accepteddefinition. If simply stated, terror is extreme or intense fear. It isa psychological state, which combines the physical and mentalefforts to create dread and insecurity.

Globally Accepted Definition: Acts committed with the aim of seriously intimidating apopulation.State Terrorism to counter terrorism:

When the whole world is in the cruel jaws of it, this reality cannot be curtailed through the more terrorism by the state; asmany countries of the present world are trying to do it in this way. The obvious example of Kashmir and Falasteen.

Political Instability:Pakistan has been facing political crisis from its birth (1947) till now.

From 1947 to 2010,In this long period many government changed but unfortunately they all could notMaintain the political environment stable, after ruling 1, 2 or three yearthat governments politically instable. Political instability is a situation

when the uncertainty among the government structure expand due tosome basic causes and it eventually end up the current government. Weall know when a ruling party faces this sort of uncertainty so they donot do well for the public. They become unable to make polices for thedevelopment of the country. The internal matter gradually becomeuncontrolled. law and order situation also become worse. Theopposition parties take the advantage of this situation. They lead the

public and compel them for strikes and all these things. eventually thegoverning government have to leave, if they don t then then there is bigpossibility that a dictator take the hold and all the development,internal ,foreign

policies is stopped this is what happening in our country.

O ver Population:Overpopulation can be defined as the condition where "finiteresources of a particular area will run. As we know that the economic development of a country depends on

various factors such as natural resources, capital and human resources.Human resources have fundamental importancebecause without them, the natural resources can not be exploited but

overpopulation causes adverse effects on the economy.In order to see the role of population in the economic development, we will consider the world population and growth rate in comparison tothat of Pakistan. The qualitative aspects of population, major factorsaffecting population growth, Malthusian population trap, the problemscreated by overpopulation and the possible solutions to the problems.

D rug Addiction:Pakistan is today notorious for many things, but in the last 20 years, drug production and addiction has increasingly become

just one of them.The issue of drug addiction is often overshadowed by the many of the country's other human development problems, such aspoverty, illiteracy and lack of basic health care. But the fact is,

drug abuse is rapidly growing in Pakistan and in South Asia ingeneral. While Bangladesh, India, Nepal and Maldives all suffer from this,Pakistan is the worst victim of the drug trade in South Asia.Today, the country has the largest heroin consumer market in thesouth-west Asia region.

It wasn't always this way. Pakistan became a major exporter of heroin in the 1980s, following the influx of Afghan refugeesescaping the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in 1979.The major consequence of this has been a significant increase indomestic consumption of heroin in Pakistan.

Education:Ignorance is lake of information or lake knowledge. In thismodern age of scientific revolution we are far behind in theeducation and most importantly scientific education. Ourliteracy rate is less than fifty percent the female education rate iseven in miserable state. The right kind of education to the

individuals is the solution of poverty. The right kind of educationto the farmer is the knowledge of scientific ways of agriculture. A progressive and professional thinking is required in the farmers.Poverty can't come to an end unless we will spend much largershare of our GDP to the education sector. We have to open moreprimary and secondary schools especially in our villages. In the1971 constitution we made primary education compulsory andfree. The constitution made a pledge to made secondary education free with in next ten years. Leave the secondary education we are not able to provide even free primary educationboth to boys and girls after passing 35 years.


9/9

Corruption:Corruption and bribery have been the bane of every society in various degree throughout the ages. All political and socialscientists have crusaded against the vicious and maliciousconsequences of corruption.

In our country corruption is just like the oil that makesthe wheels of the government run, for the structure of our polity is such that people on all rungs of government have satisfiedtheir conscience one way or the other that graft and bribery arethe only way they can make a decent living.

With regard to corruption and violence Rousseau oncesaid: "It was only when the serpent entered society in the form of private property that the life of man changed from prosperity to

adversity."Corruption is the mother of evils. It breeds and promotes allothers conceivable vices in society. It is responsible forlawlessness, disorder, injustice, turmoil, frustration and anarchy.It ruins the institutions and the system.
