Force Marriage in Pakistan
Force marriage is one of the biggest issues in Pakistan. It means where someone is forced to marry against their will and choice. It is emotional pressure on those who are forced into marriage. It is a great issue where Pakistan is falling into trouble day by day. Due to forced marriage, numerous people commit suicide and some leave their homes. Most of the cases disorders throughout their lives make women miserable. Today there are 15 million people who were forced into marriages.
Mostly they are forced under the age of 14 years. The number of Forced marriages is increasing day by day throughout the world but mostly in Pakistan. According to the latest flares, FMU gave advice and supported 101,507 cases of possible forced marriage in 2018 with 687 victims in Pakistan which makes Pakistan the largest country in terms of forced marriage-related cases.
Recently a girl was forced by her parents into a marriage but she escaped from home and now lives with her relatives. It is my request to the government serious action should be taken against this serious issue.
