A new wave of high inflation has forced people to commit suicide and in two recent incidents, a man and a four years old girl died on Saturday.

According to the 24News HD TV channel, in the first incident, a man with her four years old daughter jumped into a canal in Rahim Yar Khan. He was facing some serious financial issues.

Locals immediately rescued him but failed to save his daughter who was drawn into the canal.

In the second incident, a man hanged himself with the fan of his bedroom in Khanpur district. He had some domestic problems due to high inflation.
