The dispute between the two tribes started when a Ramejo tribesman, Sohrab, and a girl of the Kori tribe, Shabana, married some six months ago without the consent of their elders.

Ten persons of both the tribes have been killed in the dispute so far.

JUTE BAGS: The Nazim of Ghotki district on Tuesday imposed a ban on the use of jute bags by growers and cotton ginners in the district to avoid contamination in cotton.
