Ratodero, also known as Ratta Dera, is a city in the Sindh province of Pakistan and the capital of Ratodero Taluka, a sub-division of Larkana District, about 28 kilometres from the district capital Larkana. It lies on the road from Larkana to Shikarpur and acts as a regional transport hub, with roads leading to Jacobabad, Shahdad Kot, Kamber, Naudero and other nearby towns. Since independence it has been known for its sweet products and for the handmade caps called Sindhi topi, and its principal trade today is paddy and rice, with many rice mills. The article describes it as a political centre of the Pakistan Peoples Party, since Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto and Benazir Bhutto are buried in the taluka.
