Web Desk November 24, 2014

MITHI: With no end in sight to Tharparkar drought, three more children died on Monday due to malnutrition, Express News reported.

At least 80 people, mostly infants, have died in November alone while the calamity has taken over 300 lives this year.

The latest victims of drought, poverty and poor health infrastructure passed away in Mithi's Civil hospital.

Criticised for manhandling the issue, Pakistan Peoples Party-led Sindh government has failed to bring an end to the prevailing situation in the drought-hit region.
