Low-income households living in the Tharparkar suffer from water insecurity and poverty vulnerability due to lack of human and economic development inadequate water access remains a topic of vital importance to global health. The problem of poverty requires urgent attention. The present study is based on assessing the level of poverty vulnerability and water insecurity. The data indicate that very small numbers of the respondents were practicing cleaning containers/bottles and storage tanks on daily basis and they don't wash their hands after defecation, child cleaning, preparing food, and feeding. In the study, the data was not available. The respondents informed that large numbers of their animals died during the last six months due to a shortage of water and fodder and also due to diseases outbreak. The data suggested that 5% of the respondents used water supply lines and dug well and 11% used rainwater harvesting. Similarly, 81% of the respondents told that they had their water storage facility and 19% did have their water storage facility. 5% of the respondents informed that due to fever 55% of animals caused mortality, 4% khulkyo, 4% mosar, 37% motion. More than half 57% of the respondents told that they had up to 5 acres of agricultural land, 36% had land, while 43% had above 5 acres. And 36% of the respondents cultivate and 64% did not cultivate the land. These indicators are critical for the identification of specific problematic insecurity aspects and to find out new targets to improve health water and nutrition interventions.
