00:00Pakistan has become a major threat to the country due to the rise in population and economic problems.
00:11According to the population, Pakistan is the 5th largest country in the world.
00:15Let's see the challenges faced by the people and the economic system of Pakistan.
00:18This is Ayman Syed's report from Islamabad.
00:20Increasing population means increasing problems.
00:32The rapidly increasing population in our beloved country has entangled the country in numerous problems.
00:38In which the lack of health facilities, unlimited education, lack of food, shortage of water, housing and transport are the only problems.
00:47Due to the lack of resources, these problems are becoming a problem.
00:55According to the latest estimates, the population of Pakistan, which is a total of 25 crore people, and the loss of facilities have created a lot of complications in the country's development.
01:04Due to social changes, the burden of population has increased in the cities.
01:08Along with that, the agricultural land is also declining.
01:11Population and development are going hand in hand.
01:14If your population increases rapidly, the growth of available resources will be low.
01:23So, due to this imbalance, problems and difficulties have to be faced.
01:30The government launched Pakistan's population policy in 2002.
01:34Its purpose was to be ready by 2022 to solve this problem, which could not be done.
01:40The increasing population has also severely affected the environment in the territory along with human life.
01:45The pressure on agriculture has increased the environmental pollution.
01:49We need resources for development, education, infrastructure, health.
01:55But we don't have those resources.
01:57So, on the other hand, we have the option to reduce the population growth rate.
02:02Although the population growth rate is still at 1.9 or almost 2.
02:07But in the context of development, it is still high.
02:10According to the latest Bureau of Immigration report, more than 700,000 Pakistanis have left the country to go to other countries to earn income and a better life.
02:24The rapid increase in population in Pakistan has become a big problem.
02:27The people of the country are facing new challenges.
02:29The urban infrastructure is deprived of facilities.
02:31Young people have to face difficulties for employment.
02:34We know more about this from the representative of Islamabad, Aiman Syed.
02:37Aiman, please tell us.
02:39If we talk about the population of Pakistan, then not only from the side of experts,
02:43but also from the side of international leaders, the rapid increase in population in Pakistan has become a big problem.
02:48And because of this, Pakistan and its people are facing a lot of challenges.
02:53In which, the problems of food, water, and transportation are facing in the past few years.
03:02The rapid increase in the population of Pakistan has been seen.
03:06The rulers will have to see how these problems can be controlled.
03:09In addition, experts say that the problem of increasing population has not only affected human life in Pakistan,
03:17but has also caused a lot of damage to the environment.
03:20In this regard, if we look at agriculture, because there is a lot of population,
03:24the focus is more on agriculture.
03:26More land is cultivated.
03:28And because of this, there has been a lot of pollution in Pakistan.
03:31If we talk about any city or rural areas,
03:35because of more agriculture and more land cultivation, the environment of Pakistan has also suffered a lot.
03:41Certainly, this is a big problem,
03:43on which experts and rulers have to work together.
