Lahore leads in run-away children numbers

A police report reveals that Lahore ranks first in the number of children who run away from home due to disputes with their parents. Most boys and girls head to the railway station to leave for other cities.

According to the Railway Police, ninety-six children from various cities in Punjab were returned to their parents over a period of three months. Children tend to leave home when their demands for phones, laptops, and other items are not met.

The help desk explained to Samaa news that railway stations provide an accessible route for children to travel to other cities.
