'Luxury' at a cost of real life

We have been emphasizing on the fact that nothing is being done to eradicate these evils from these darbars, while darbars’ management and police say that they’re trying their level best. We cannot be completely pessimistic towards their claim. There are endless talks of police reforms and NGO objectives but their service is indeed mired in inefficiency and corruption. In spite of all this there are some measures undertaken by the relevant authorities to curb the deadly issues of the darbar. They have a drug rehabilitation centre inside the vicinity of the Data Darbar. Moreover many organizations have started to work to curb the menace uprising in the Darbar. There are some NGOs that have setup their offices at Data Darbar such as “Nigh-e-Ban” which is part of the Child Protection and Welfare Bureau (CPWB), formed in 2004. It is working to rescue the children and rehabilitate them. They provide them with primary education, encourage them to study and help them recover from drug addiction and other issues they get involved in. The rehabilitation process will take its due time. Moreover, International Organization like United Nations International Children Educational Funds (UNICEF) has come in collaboration with the local government of Punjab, Pakistan to help the socially abused children around the pious Darbar area. How far such efforts will succeed in resolving the issue of these children remains to be seen.
During my research i interviewed a few of the children who are residing in these children centres in the darbar. I was alarmed when i found out that some of the children runaway from homes because they don’t want to continue studies as they’re afraid of physical torture by their teachers. Does this mean that some blame goes towards our educational institutions? Children at the darbar don’t have the motivation to learn something good in life. They don’t even feel like working. According to them they’re earning from begging and they don’t need anything else. For other fascinations and charms they accompany peers to nearby mini- porno cinemas, get highly intoxicated and settle into a slumber of lost paradise. After hours they’re either dragged by police or they’re left there by themselves. With the childrens’ so called satisfied lives, the question that now arises is do these children want to get out of the misery even if relevant authorities do their jobs?
