  • PRF Report on Drought/Famine Affected Tharparkar @Mithi
    Pakistan Relief Foundation Report on Drought/Famine Affected Tharparkar @Mithi (Situation, actions taken and long term solutions) Let’s say something about Drought-affected Tharparkar@ Mithi District: This district of Sindh province is headquartered at its city namely Mithi. Tough wolrd’s sixth largest coal reserves are lying in the land of this district but it has the lowest Human Development Index among all districts of the province. The most of population of the area use to speak with each other in “Dhatki”, the local language since many decades. It is Indian bordering district. The district has four other talukas with over 2,000 villages spread across the largest desert region in the country. People can’t cultivate crops on their lands as there is desert everywhere. Tharparkar is a biggest desert of Sindh and Pakistan. Local population use to wait for monsoon rains which occur for their bread and butter. Assessed reasons of drought/famine: According to the assessment conducted by PRF’s team, Tharparkar @ Mithi district, which usually receives rainfall only during the monsoon season, witnessed scattered and delayed rains during monsoon-2013. The rain deficit in parts of district resulted in less-than-average agriculture production and shortage of fodder for livestock. The situation aggravated in the months October, November, and December with the outbreak of sheep pox and other diseases which affected more than 0.1 million livestock. Later, situation turned into severe phase and innocent children became the target of drought. Failures on the part of Sindh Government: It could be recalled easily that in August 2012, last provincial government (led by Pakistan People’s Party) had declared Tharparkar calamity-hit as they had assessed the situation of drought on time and they succeeded to to save the livestock and precious lives of local people.

    Eurasian Journal of Humanities Vol. 2. Issue 1. (2016) ISSN: 2413-9947 Assimilation and incidental differences in Sindhi language Ahdi Hassan Pakistan Languages Corpora, Islamabad, Pakistan [email protected], Abstract This research paper is an attempt to describe assimilation and incidental differences in the Sindhi language. The purpose of this study is to offer a comparative study of two dialects of the Sindhi language Vicholi and Siroli. The project examined different aspects of Sindhi phonology, as well as some features of Sindhi syntax and morphology. Although studies conducted on the Sindhi phonology are briefly described, there is still a need to analyze it further. The sample for the study is taken from ten Vicholi participants and ten Siroli participants of these two different dialects of the Sindhi language. The pronunciation of sample words was recorded first, then transcribed phonetically and then, finally analyzed. These dialects were compared to find out similarities and differences in them. This paper examines assimilation and incidental differences which are very common observable occurrences and cross linguistic features. Two main questions were posed. How can patterns of assimilation be different from one another? Is it happening all the time to come up analysis with unified patterns of assimilation? This work is based on fieldwork in region Shikarpur and Khairpur; The data collected by making recordings with different background of social such as professionals advice , different age, unpremeditated of storytelling and speech , storytelling. The results show very clear distinctions and dissimilarities among the speakers of these two different dialects of Sindhi language in Pakistan. Keywords: Sindhi, Siroli, Vicholi , assimilation, incidental differences Introduction Sindhi language belongs to an Indo-Aryan family of languages with its root in the River Indus Valley (Minahan, 2012).

  • Burden of Malaria in Sindh, Pakistan: a Two Years Surveillance Report
    ORIGINAL ARTICLE BURDEN OF MALARIA IN SINDH, PAKISTAN: A TWO YEARS SURVEILLANCE REPORT M. Akbar Nizamani, Nawaz A. Kalar and Imdad A. Khushk ABSTRACT OBJECTIVES: To determine the malaria burden in Sindh province of Pakistan and suggest ap- propriate measures to prevent and control this problem. DESIGN: A descriptive study. SETTING: All districts of Sindh during January 2004 to December 2005. METHODS: This study was based on data of provincial malaria control program of Sindh. Active and passive case detection and malariometric survey of population of Sindh are done by health workers of this program in all districts. A monthly report is then sent to the central pool at Hy- derabad for compiling and analysis of the data. RESULTS: In years 2004 and 2005, all districts of Sindh were covered by malaria control pro- gram. Malaria microscopists observed more than 2.82 million blood slides by all three methods of case collection with an average blood examination ratio of 4. More than 68,000 slides were reported positive for malarial parasite with an average slide positivity rate of 2.41%. Average plasmodium falciparum ratio in years 2004 and 2005 was 33% and 37.2% respectively. Esti- mated annual parasite incidence was 5.6 per 1000 population and 3.85 per 1000 population in years 2004 and 2005 respectively. In this period, malaria remained endemic in whole of Sindh throughout the year but incidence was relatively higher in coastal areas and rainy and post rainy seasons. CONCLUSION: Malaria is endemic in whole Sindh province round the year. It becomes high risk in coastal districts in rainy and post rainy seasons.
