Re: Sindh Assembly passes resolution against division of Sindh
Brother, what I was talking about is actual Karachi (Metha-Dar, Khara-Dar, Kemari, Lyari, Hub industrial area, etc).
In 50s and 60s, Manora, Landhi, Korangi, port Qasim, even Malir was considered (or felt by most Karachiets) as areas outside Karachi. In 60s, Karachi expanded far and wide but still, it seems Numaish (that falls before Quaid’s Mazar … on road from Kameri to Guru Mandir) was far away place. But with time, Karachi expanded, and all became integral part of Karachi. Maybe, twenty to thirty years from now, Thatta may become part of Karachi.
As for Baab-ul-Islam in Hind, that is nothing to do with Karachi. It is to do with Sindh (Raja Dahir was King of Sindh). As for Baluchistan, a large part, almost whole of Baluchistan, came under Muslim rule before Islam reached Sindh [since Umar (RA) time], but that does not count, because Baluchistan at the time was not even considered as part of Hind, rather it was mostly part of Iran (and almost whole of Persian empire, was under Muslim rule at that time).
