The Sindh Ministry of Culture has drafted legislation to prevent children in the entertainment industry from working during school hours, reports the Express Tribune.
Dr. Junaid Ali Shah, the interim culture minister, highlighted the importance of ensuring young artists balance work and education. The proposed law, the Children Drama Industry Ordinance, and Sindh Actor Royalty Ordinance, outlines regulations for children’s working hours, restricting their engagement during school hours and late-night shoots.
It is important to note that in India, the work of child actors is dealt with under child labour laws. The producers are required to fulfill certain conditions to work with child labours.
