Tharparkar drought: Death toll rises to 61 as another child dies
Two other drought-affected children, reportedly in critical condition, were also moved to Hyderabad for medical treatment.
Around 52 children are undergoing treatment in the Civil hospital of Mithi while the federal and provincial governments continue to ignore the plight of those affected by the drought.
The drought, that has claimed around 470 lives in the last three years, also badly affected animals with provincial government failing to provide free or subsidised fodder for protecting them from the devastating spell.
Government action
Sindh Chief Minister Qaim Ali Shah has summoned a cabinet meeting in Mithi on Wednesday to review situation of drought-hit Tharparkar and the relief work.
