The front page of Sindh on Reddit.
This sub is dedicated to the province of Sindh and its people. Sindh ( سنڌ ) is located in the southeast of Pakistan. The word Sindh is derived from the Sanskrit term Sindhu (literally meaning "river"), which is a reference to Indus River which flows into the Arabian Sea from this land. It is also known as the Valley of Mehran. Sindh is known for its distinct culture which is strongly influenced by Sufism, an important marker of Sindhi identity. It is also home to the Indus Valley Civilisation. The capital of Sindh is Karachi and it borders India to the east and the Pakistani provinces of Baluchistan and Punjab to the west and north respectively and the Arabian Sea to the south.

From what I understand there's an unwritten understanding between PPP, establishment, judiciary, bureaucracy etc this is a sensitive topic and will make Sindhis feel threatened so nothing is ever done.
I’m not a Sindhi btw, I’m your neighbour (Gujarati) from India…
Some of the words like:
Chhokro means a boy as far as I understand, Gaadiyu is a plural word for car in Sindhi so, these were a few words I caught and are common in Sindhi and Gujarati…
I have heard people say that most people that are eligible to receive funds from the Benazir Income Support Programme do not know how to operate ATMs therefore they ask bystanders to withdraw funds for them. Some bystanders are good Samaritans while others take advantage of them by asking them for a cut or by withdrawing less than the actual funds and pocketing the difference for themselves. Has any else observed or heard this?
If this is true, what could be the possible solutions to this issue?
I was named Sindhu (means river/Ocean) and since it's quite uncommon, I have struggled to explain the meaning and the reason behind it to everyone I've met so far.
Being a shy kid, this gave me enough anxiety and made me feel so insecure and unconfident whenever I had to introduce my self.
Well, now that I'm all grown up and can now change my name (long process i know) per I'm kinda used to it and always in doubt whether to change it or not. I like it's meaning tho and the way it's pronounced.
People assume I'm Hindu because of my name, some people think it's a caste so they ask for a full name, more often I'm mistaken as a male and get embarrassed with all the awkwardness.
Do you know anyone who's name is Sindhu? What do you personally think of it?

You know back in the 80s, 90s, 2000s u would hear about Muhajirs and Sindhis not liking each other is there any hate between the two groups now. Btw I am a Muhajir. Also could a Sindhi please explain why a Sindhi might not like Muhajir people. Cause me and my family we are Muhajirs but we were raised in a village and around sindhis.
There is 16 to 18 hours loadshoading in my area, even in the month of Ramadan you can't sit in peace. How hard is it for these clowns to get rid of kundas? Even one of my relative who is in wapda but lives in a different area charges people a certain amount for unlimited electricity units. There is a peer in my area who has 24/7 electricity running for him. Why tf do we have to suffer? When we even pay our electricity bills. How tf is one supposed get his work done when you don't even get 4 hours of consistent electricity, Iv lost so many opportunities only cuz of these clowns, I hope anyone who steals electricity sees nothing but misery in his life.
hi, is Sindhi a hard language to learn (esp grammar wise) if you only know Urdu? Are there any good websites or YouTube channels that teach it? I have a few Sindhi friends and I wanna know what they're saying because I'm nosey lol
There was this time from 2005-2012 something when The kashish music channel was popular and we used to listen these modern pop music style Sindhi songs. Songs like : 1. Ae hawa aon cho na khilan 2. Jani muhunjo musan galhae na tho 3. Gulabi jore main 4. Ach jald muhunja janeera mukhe raat b nind na ae. I remember one artist shahla gul used to makes these kind of songs. Nowadays there is this traditional musical runing which used to do before. There was a time where sindhi music industry was thriving but now we got clowns like mumtaz molaI. Suggest me more songs like this with upbeat music style
Hi. I’m trying to do more research on minorities in Pakistan and their treatment. Since 90 or so per cent of Hindus in Pakistan are in sindh, how are Hindus treated in sindh. What’s the view amongst Pakistani Muslims towards Hindus. I’ve heard and read of many attacks on temples for example after babri masjid was attacked hundreds of Hindu temples across the country were attacked and 500 shops were burnt. Whats the socioeconomic status of Hindus in sindh. Do they face harassment and discrimination in the work space or school? Thank you for reading.
I used to listen to this song but lost it now. Can you find me its name or link
