“We all will be responsible if a single child on street is away from home and school. Children are future of the country. It is our responsibility to give them better conditions to live and deliver,” Ms Khan said.

She further said: “It is our duty to work for the rights of the children.”

She also visited the house of the six siblings in Shadbagh who lost their lives in a fire incident and condoled with their parents.
