CONCERN FOR CHILDREN.
On this International Children’s Day, it is imperative to acknowledge the pressing global issue of child abuse, a reality that has affected countless children, some of whom have tragically experienced abduction both in recent times and historically. I wish we revisit the review our system again:
1.It is essential for our government to reassess its priorities regarding the fundamental rights of children.
2.Families must become more vigilant and proactive in safeguarding their children’s welfare.
3.Educational institutions need to conduct comprehensive evaluations of their policies and practices to ensure a safe and nurturing environment.
4.Additionally, religious organizations should focus on rebuilding and strengthening their support systems for children in need.
Let us collectively strive to create a society where the rights and well-being of every child are upheld and protected.
Together we can do it.
