Karachi: Sindhi Culture Day brought together people from all walks of life on Sunday to honor their heritage through rallies, music, and cultural shows. The festivities also carried a strong message to safeguard Sindh’s identity and resources.
In Karachi, thousands of participants gathered at the Karachi Press Club (KPC) and nearby streets. Attendees, dressed in Ajrak and Sindhi Topi, celebrated the occasion with enthusiasm. Sindhi-language TV channels organized the main event, featuring performances by renowned artists like Deeba Saher, Tufail Sanjrani, and Ahmed Mughal.
Youth energized the celebrations by dancing to iconic Sindhi songs. Speakers openly opposed the federal government’s plan to build six additional canals on the Indus River. Sindh Culture Minister Syed Zulfiqar Ali Shah reiterated the PPP’s commitment to resisting such projects. He also announced plans to digitize the poetry of Shah Abdul Latif Bhittai and other poets.
Cities like Sukkur, Khairpur, Shikarpur, and Ghotki hosted vibrant rallies. Organizers set up welcome camps near the Sukkur Press Club, where large crowds gathered in traditional attire. People celebrated with Sindhi songs and dances, creating a festive environment.
Khairpur hosted a ceremony at Ambrella Chowk that highlighted Sindh’s rich traditions. Rallies in Shikarpur, Ghotki, and Kandhkot showcased the unity and pride of Sindhi communities. Participants urged nationalist parties to collaborate for common goals.
Sindhi Culture Day, celebrated globally on the first Sunday of December, reflects the unique identity of Sindhi traditions. It honors Ajrak, Sindhi Topi, and the Sindhi language. The day highlights Sindh’s role as the “Bab-e-Islam” and its contributions to Pakistan’s cultural and economic development.
