Sir: In Pakistan corporal punishment is still continue in schools. In Balochistan corporal punishment is very common.In many schools, students are beaten terribly when they fail in a class test or unable to do their homework. There can be many reasons when they get fail in test also when they not do their given homeworks. Students are future of our country; they must be treated according to their mental level. According to the article 19 of the UNCRS ‘State parties could take all social and educational measures to protect the children (students) from physical or mental violence, abuse, neglect treatment, injury and many more.’ The article 19 should be followed and corporal punishment should be stopped by government.
