Tharparkar drought claims another life
Ten-year old Ali was the second of two children who died today in Mithi.
The drought has claimed nearly 300 lives this year. An alarming number of children are suffering from pneumonia or diarrhoea due to a dangerous mix of drought, poverty and poor health infrastructure.
Since the start of October, 48 children have died in Tharparkar, according to doctor Abdul Jalil, district health officer for Tharparkar district.
