Profits and priorities

While people are generally trying to help the flood victims to the extent that they can, there are those busy making undue profit even during such hard times. People in Larkana are victims at the hands of such a mafia. Since the demand for plastic sheets for covering rooftops of mud houses during rains has increased, the price of the per-metre plastic sheet has rocketed to Rs300, which otherwise was Rs50. Prioritising profit over human lives and misery is utterly shameful.
