SANGHAR: A child’s video, where he is seen appealing to PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari to help drain contaminated water from his neighbourhood while holding a dead rooster, has gone viral on the social media.

Following the recent floods, dozens of villages in Sanghar continue to remain partially flooded despite passage of weeks’ destroying crops and other possessions. The villagers have little access to relief material provided by the government including potable water. The video is critical of both the ruling provincial and federal governments. Expressing frustration, the child said “the old Pakistan was better for us.”

While standing in the water and holding his dead rooster, the child told the PPP chairman that the contaminated water has killed the rooster. “We need clean potable water as this would kill us too.” The contaminated water has killed our cattle, he lamented.
