Social reform is a progressive manner to change society for the better of mankind. Social reform is a term that could be used to describe any type of reform that directly affects the public. It also refers to any attempt that seeks to correct any injustices in a society. People who are involved in social reforms do so with the aim of improving the standard of society. We need some reforms in our country Pakistan. Pakistan is a land of tremendous contradictions. On one hand, one sees such enormous prosperity and wealth, while on the other hand one-third of Pakistanis go without a second meal every day. It is pleasing to know that Pakistan is making progress in every field. But it makes one’s heart bleed when you know that only around 20% of rural Pakistanis have sanitation facilities and 40% of them are able to get potable water to drink. Even today nearly 42% of our children in the villages find it difficult to access schooling while many children are still labouring away in the fields and factories to make their family’s ends meet. While we are able to find solutions to all kinds of technical and software problems all over the world, we still are grappling with having nearly 25% of the world’s poor in our country. While we are finding more young achievers in the field of sports, music, arts, technology and wealth creation, we find very few young people leading us in the political and social arenas. Finding solutions to the complex social, economic, infrastructural, political and poverty-related problems is indeed a great challenge. This challenge needs enormous energy, a fresh perspective, a grandiose vision and superhuman efforts. We need following social reforms to change our society.
