  • Sindhiyat in India
    Chapter 2 Sindhiyat in India Apart from other individual and centers of activities which must be many and diverse, the two institutions in India, Sindhi Academy and Indian Institute of Sindhology, seem to reflect the overall Sindhiyat in India. For any well-wisher the signs are encouraging. The human spirit is working. In fact human spirit never stops its work, whatever the adversities. To the extent I have gone through the activities for Sindhi language in India and abroad, in spite of the fact that compared to Pakistan’s Sindhis there are ‘few’ Sindhis in India and abroad, I tend to feel as if 1947 had not only separated Hindus from Muslims but the mind of the Sindhi language from its body as well. * What follows is what Sindhi Academy tells about itself and its activities: Sindhi Academy Introduction The Sindhi Academy was established by the erstwhile Delhi Administration now Govt.of NCT of Delhi as an autonomous organisation in the year 1994 for propagation, promotion and development of Sindhi language, literature and culture as an integral part of composite culture of Union Territory of Delhi. Ever since its inception the Academy has been playing a catalytic role in the proliferation of the Sindhi literary and cultural activities in the sphere of music, folk dances, seminars, symposia, short story, poetry, novel, literary criticism, drama etc. Our goal is to achieve all-round development of Sindhi language, literature and culture in the Union Territory of Delhi. During the last few years, the Academy has assumed a significant role and status of premier organisation in the field of Sindhi language, literature and culture.

For this commentator as for many in Pakistan, Sindh had so far been relatively spared by communal and sectarian violence thanks to its ‘Sufi ethos [which] has long been cherished as the panacea for burgeoning extremism in Pakistan’ (Akhtar 2015).

  • Dr. Kajal Jethanand Sadhwani Volume I Issue I Infinity Journals Article 1
    DR. KAJAL JETHANAND SADHWANI VOLUME I ISSUE I INFINITY JOURNALS ARTICLE 1. INFINITY JOURNAL DR. KAJAL JETHANAND SADHWANI ABSTRACT: Lord Jhulelal is the principal deity of Sindhi community. He is described as 'Ishta Dev' of Sindhis. He is believed to be an incarnation of Lord Varuna, a powerful God in Vedic period. He was born around 950 A.D. in a small town Nasarpur in Sindh which is about 90 miles away from Hyderabad in today’s Pakistan and which was a part of undivided India before 1947. He was born in a Lohana family and his mother’s name was Mata Devaki and father’s name was Ratanrai Thakkar.Lord Jhulelal gave a message of brotherhood, love and harmony which is so relevant in today's time when the world seems to be divided in the name of different religions, caste and creed. In Pakistan and in India, this name Jhulelal refers to a number of sacred figures also known as Udero Lal, Lal Sain, Amar Lal, Khwajah Khizr, and even Lal Shahbaz Qalandar. Mata Devki delivered a male child who had an enchanting smile on his face and his face was so bright as if Sun had risen (Uday = Rise), hence the name of the child was kept Uderolal. In the 16th century joint Muslim-Hindu shrine complex at Udero Lal, near the city of Tando Adam Khan, dedicated to Saint Sheikh Tahir for Muslims and Lord Jhulelal for the Hindus was constructed which has has a unique architectural history. This all-white painted shrine complex that had largely been inspired by the Central Asian architecture, ‘Caravanserai’, the Udero Lal shrine is a symbol of interfaith harmony.
