On March 7, then chief justice of Pakistan Tassaduq Hussain Jillani took notice of the deaths of children in Tharparkar due to acute malnutrition.
During a hearing today, the court reminded the government of earlier three-week deadline to submit its report on the drought. The report was requested from several departments including revenue and health authorities.
Government representative informed the judge that the deadline has not expired yet and the report will be submitted soon.
Pakistan Peoples Party-led Sindh government is under intense criticism for its failure to alleviate the suffering of the people of Tharparkar.
Muttahida Quami Movement, which recently moved to the opposition benches in the Sindh Assembly, has censured the provincial government for deaths - mostly of children - in the district.

A good demand by the SHC to demand a report on Thar Tragedy, albeit, a little too late. Nevertheless, what can a lame duck do??? Salams
