One of the deceased from Ratan Jotar was only four-months, while three deaths took place at Mithi's Civil hospital.
Eighteen children passed away in the month of December alone.
On December 6, Sindh Chief Minister Qaim Ali Shah had ordered the constitution of a two-member commission to probe into the drought-related deaths in the region.
The commission is expected to submit a report to the Sindh chief minister in 30 days.

@Dilip:
Sorry that would have to wait, Nawaz is a little busy with foreign trips/ shopping/ personal business deals masked as country's economic deals and you must know that Pakistani lives are cheap for this government.
"commission is expected to submit a report to the Sindh chief minister in 30 days" - SAD. What is the action that is taken immediately ????? Surely Tharparkar is not that heavily populated. Immediate action can be take to save lives.
