Re: Sindh Through Centuries!
Sindhi leadership didn’t want that from the first day. They sent a delegation to Mr Jinah, but he didn’t hear them as he didn’t hear Bengalis on issue of language. so the difference and sense of marginalized. Time proved that their concerns were right, as just after 3 years in 1951, there came a demand for making Karachi a separate province and the rest is history.
Lives of Sindhi Muslims didn’t change after partition. Sindhi waderas were in power in rural areas and they still are. Before partition, Hindus were dominating urban centres and their place was later taken by migrants under the patronage of government. No representation of Sindh in first federal cabinet of Pakistan raise many questions and the answer of such questions is quota system, which is being used as political exploitation of masses today.
Hmmm…demand of karachi province in 51? Didnt know about that. Was that a demand for an actual province or Karachi as federal capital would have become separate, same like Islamabad.
