Violence and sexual abuse against girls are increasing at an alarming rate across the country. In the first four months of this year alone, at least 118 girls were reportedly raped, while 17 were murdered after being abused. Child rights activists say these numbers are not just statistics \u2014 they reflect a serious failure of the state, society, and families to protect children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to data compiled from human rights organizations and media reports, the incidents took place in different districts between January and April. In many cases, the accused were people known to the victims, including neighbors, relatives, and influential local individuals. Although cases have been filed in some incidents, many families are still struggling to get justice due to lengthy legal procedures and social pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Experts say stronger law enforcement and effective state monitoring are urgently needed to ensure children\u2019s safety. They also stress the importance of awareness programs in schools, families, and communities, along with the proper implementation of child protection policies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Organizations working on child rights say the real number of cases could be even higher, as many families avoid reporting incidents because of fear, social stigma, and pressure from powerful groups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The growing number of rape and murder cases involving girls has also triggered public anger on social media. Many people are demanding quick trials, exemplary punishment for offenders, and a safer environment for children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Human rights activists say statements and condemnations alone are not enough. Immediate and effective action is necessary to stop the ongoing violence against children before the situation becomes even more dangerous.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
