Re: ‘All Sindh residents should write Sindhi in language column of census form’
There has no problem with other communities living in Sindh rural,
The new system of posting news item through ‘insert image’ does not allow me to post. However it says that Punjabis living in Samaro (rural Sindh) has pledged that they will declare as Sindhis in census and write their mother tongue as Sindhi.
Following is the is the reaction of one of the participant in the discussions under “Sindh Vision”
"It is a great gesture.
We may have lots of complaints from Punjabi elite of Punjab but the Punjabi settled here, specially in rural area have amalgamated and mixed them in Sindh and Sindhi culture to reasonable extent. It is no drifting from topic if I quote that the Bhattis, Bhuttos, Khokhar, Arain, Mendhro, Kamboh etc. are as good as original Sindhis. It is a hard fact that unlike Urdu speaking people, Punjabis have never indulged in any bloody feud with Sindhis. The similar is the position of Pakhtoons, we popularly call Pathans. The much famed Duranis and Yousifzais etc. are ready examples. Though the mischievous figure like Nawab Muzaffar of Hyderabad tried his best to tie with Punjabi and Pashtoons making ‘Sindh Mohajir, Punjabi, Pathan Mutahida Mahaz’ in penultimate end of 60s gaining strength in 70s but to no response.
