Prevention of human trafficking is essential

Twenty-eight Pakistanis and sixty migrants, including children, drowned when a boat sank in the sea off southern Italy.

A person has been detained for human trafficking. It is being told that the dead Pakistanis belong to Gujrat, Kharian, Mandi Bahauddin.

No matter how much regret can be expressed on this tragedy, such sad events have been happening continuously for the past several years, the demon of unemployment is swallowing us, earlier the news of the people of Cambodia and Vietnam was circulating in the media. That so many migrants’ boats have sunk or died in containers for hours.

Now all this is happening with Pakistanis. There is a lack of reliable data on human trafficking in the country, making it difficult to determine the extent of human trafficking. Traffickers try different tactics to lure the common man, with slick talk and the lure of the future.

Golden dreams and dreams of settling abroad are shown. These false dreams of the future include greed and romance. False job advertisements will also be seen in newspapers. Getting a good education or settling abroad can be anyone’s dream.

So it is also easily used. Many people fall into the trap due to greed and deception.

Going to Europe and other developed countries with dreams of a bright future in their eyes has become the ultimate goal of the youth of Pakistan along with other developing countries, and in the effort to achieve this dream goal, a large number of young people have achieved results and achievements. Every year without care, it becomes fodder for human traffickers and unseen sufferings and difficulties.

Agents who send such people abroad do not tell them the truth about the difficulties they face on the way, so, according to them, most of them do not know what kind of difficulties they will have to face to get to Europe. . Although no official statistics are available on human trafficking, it is estimated that around 3 lakh people are trafficked from Pakistan every year.

There is no doubt that Pakistan is going through the most difficult period economically, politically and socially, every institution is controversial, the political leadership is badly exposed, the darkness of despair is increasing and the rays of hope are extinguishing one by one. are

In these situations, the first class that is consciously affected is the youth, and it is this class that first decides what to do next, usually leaving them with only two options.

The first is to leave the dilapidated settlement and migrate in search of a prosperous settlement and find a new abode, or the second is to light candles by oneself to remove this darkness, even if its fuel is one’s own blood. be

It is a great tragedy for the youth to leave the country at a time of difficulty. If our youth continue to leave the country, who will heal the sufferings of the helpless and helpless? If in this dark night of the eclipse, everyone goes to Jagno, then who will show the way to the residents of this country who are sitting waiting for the morning and the fulfillment of their dreams?

When there is uncertainty in your home, there is lawlessness, there is no system, there is no justice, there is nepotism and then there is no hope of improvement from anywhere, then you are the ones who leave the house. How to stop?

It is true that there is darkness in the country at this time due to economic crisis, mismanagement, injustice and dozens of unknown problems, but those who are directly and indirectly the rulers of this country are to blame for all this. So why are we leaving the country instead of fighting to rid it of this elite?

The simple background of this situation is that we have left no ray of employment, security and happiness for these youth in Pakistan. As far as educated people are concerned, Pakistan’s economy and society have lost the ability to absorb the potential of its young citizens.

We have destroyed the dreams of the young generation. Economists call this situation brain drain. This weakens the economy and civilization as a whole. It should be known that the only motivation for these youths of Pakistan is not the search for livelihood. Today’s youth is aware of the contemporary world.

At the moment, it seems that a large number of young people have decided to take the first route, according to figures from the Bureau of Immigration, the number of people who left the country last year for a better future is surprising and sad. has increased.

In 2022, 7 lakh 65 thousand educated youth have left Pakistan, they include doctors, engineers, IT experts and youth from other fields. , lost 2500 doctors, 1600 nurses, 2000 IT experts, 6500 accountants, 2600 agricultural experts and 900 teachers.

A large number of Pakistani youth, who are considered to be the guarantor of the development and bright future of any country.

Don’t want to live in this country. If you look around, every other friend or loved one is dreaming of living in America, Canada, Australia, UK or any European country while other countries in the region are introducing new “packages” for citizenship. Capitalists are attracting Pakistanis.

Nowadays, you must have seen the advertisements of investment in Turkey in Pakistan, they are introducing special packages for Pakistanis, the way Turkey has created its influence in Pakistan in the last few years.

His example is not found. As soon as Indian dramas were banned, the Turkish film and drama industry started to establish a presence in Pakistan and then gradually this process started at the official level as well, with the effect that 90% of Pakistanis were exposed to the Ottoman Empire. Not only Turkey’s tourism got a boost, but in the last few years, two and a half million Pakistanis also settled there permanently.

Turkey has provided the facility to Pakistanis who apply for Saudi Arabia visa to pay for Umrah, Turkey will get a one-month visa free.

By doing this, 5.3 million Pakistanis visited Turkey in the last 3 years. UAE has decided to grant citizenship to foreigners. The UAE has introduced new schemes to attract the world’s elite. UAE nationals can also retain their original citizenship.

Rich people from all over the world have benefited from these schemes, in which Indians are at the first place while Pakistanis are seen at the second place. Similarly, more than half of our textile industry has been transferred to Bangladesh, that is, Pakistan’s textile exports are only 7 billion dollars while Bangladesh’s has become 34 billion dollars. If we compare Pakistan with Bangladesh in terms of area, population, resources and economy. Its textile exports are also more than 34 billion dollars.

Currently, Bangladesh has not announced any such package, but in view of the energy crisis in Pakistan, it has announced half electricity rates for investors, uninterrupted and free water supply and subsidies on petroleum products.

This is not the time to leave the country but to change this stinking system. Educated and conscious youth must come forward to change the system itself so that the people of the country have the option of an honest, competent and conscious leadership instead of commission eaters, money launderers and moral thieves belonging to the elite.

It is easy to take an escape path in bad times but taking responsibility to change the situation is a difficult but honorable choice, why not take another path, why not light candles to remove this darkness. The country should be freed from the merchants of darkness.

Leaving this country is not the solution to the problems, solving the problems is the solution to the problems. The youth will leave the country but their families and loved ones have to stay here.

Another foreign country can never become a country even after a million efforts. It is easy to escape and difficult to fulfill responsibilities. It is the youth’s decision to take responsibility or leave the country.
