The Sindhis who left for India fluently speak, read and write the language of the states they settled in. I've seen Gujrati-speaking Sindhis, Tamil-speaking Sindhis etc. While Indian migrants in Sindh avoid Sindhi like it's the language of sub-humans.
Lies lies and more lies.
I can speak fluent sindhi and so do many muhajirs I know. It is not language based but rather hatred due to the fact muhajirs are able to quickly establish themselves in urban sindh as powerful force.
Discrimination started from 1947. G M Syed was the main architect of it.
The so-called Sindhi-nationalists who make Pakistan and immigrants (Muhajirs) responsible for grasping the rights of Sindh never talk about the two facts.
- Prior to Pakistan, Sindh had an elected assembly, which took the lead in voting for Pakistan. It was a vote for freedom from British colonialism and Hindu domination and the affirmation to be a part of an independent country – Pakistan.
- Immigrants settled in Sindh as a part of the established process of Pakistan and they had a legal migration to Pakistan (not Sindh) and they were legally allowed to settle wherever they want in Pakistan, few of them given their legal claims of properties in urban areas of Sindh and remaining in majority and their generations still waiting for their legal claims in Sindh.
The fears were penned down by Pir Ali Muhammad Rashidi , 1946 in a series of articles in G.M. Syed’s daily ‘Qurbani’, fuelling and fanning the ethnic fire against the Punjabis.
Shahid Kardar posits in his book, “Polarization in the region: The Roots of discontent,” that the first point of conflict between the Urdu speaking migrants and the local Sindhis cropped up when there surfaced the issue of the allotment of lands left by their Hindu counterparts while leaving for India. Such lands in Sindh sprawled the area of two million acres. Sindh assembly showed nimbleness to pass a bill requiring the allotment of these vast tracts of lands to the local
Sindhis, but the Quaid-e-Azam intervened in before it was converted into law. Thus, the lands were allotted to migrants from India.
If it hadn't been for Quaid e Azam , muhajirs wouldn't have land to live on.
Another factor, which estranged the Sindhis further from the Muhajirs, was the prominence of the latter in many affairs of the state. The Muhajirs, who were well educated, had settled in the urban areas of Karachi, Hyderabad and Sukkar, gained dominance in politics, bureaucracy, military and business, leaving local Sindhis behind.
Yeah before arrival of Muhajirs native use to eat grass,hunt wild animals and wear their skin as attire.
Does burning poor labourers in Baldia Town also counts as teaching?
Yup . They did actually. Natives were incredibly poor and backward. Muhajirs that came were very well educated and occupied bureaucracy and rapidly developed urban areas of Sindh. The jealousy of native Sindhis regarding the success of Muhajirs made them hate muhajirs so much.
As I said before , MQM went astray in later years. Despite all the bad it did in its later years , I have to give credit to earlier MQM that gave muhajirs their rights and taught them how to protect themselves. If it hadn't been for them , I am pretty sure we would have been a third class citizen of this country under the ruling elite of Sindhi feudal lords.
If you really are sincere about the development of Sindh, you should focus on the whole of Sindh, not just limit yourself to its one corner.
Hahaha .... We would but Sindhis won't allow us. Try to live as a muhajir outside of urban sindh and see what happens.
Besides , Sindhi party ( PPP) rule over large parts of Sindh. If Sindhis can't be loyal to their own people( Thar and upper sindh is exclusively ruled by PPP and living conditions over there is absolutely pathetic) , what makes you think we would trust you to be nice to us.....
As long as G M Syed and his hateful teachings would be accepted, there will never be a harmony.
