Pakistan continues to face multiple sources of internal and external conflict. While incidences of domestic terrorism have reduced, in part due to measures taken by the Pakistani state, extremism and intolerance of diversity have grown. One dollar is equal to 142 Pakistani rupees. Inflation increases day by day as does poverty. Seventy percent of the population of Pakistan lives in the rural areas. The growing population too has a negative Impact on the country’s reserves and resources. This unchecked population growth can be extremely detrimental to Pakistan’s development. For this, a family planning emergency must be triggered and enforced.The country also faces an unequal distribution of wealth. The local bodies system from Article 140 of the constitution states that power should be transferred to the lower levels of government. When this transition finally occurs, it will improve the condition of the public as well. The country’s tax net too needs to expand as only a small segment of the population pays tax. Landlords, civil and military bureaucracy, large companies, bank owners, and housing society owners are included in the elite of Pakistan and are given special privileges in the form of tax cuts. One of the major issues the country is facing is a shortage of water. According to research by an American university, Pakistan is among the top ten countries in the world which are suffering from a water crisis. Handling this water crisis will not be easy. The government needs to work on these problems to make the country more development.Malik Zaryaab HaiderSheikhupura
