Keywords

Culture of Sindh.

Abstract

Sindh possesses specific and individual distinct identity formed out of its centuries old history, culture, and language. The history, politics, culture, language, and education have been those distinct features of this identity. But as a province in Pakistan, these distinct features of Sindhi identity are losing ground in the province resulting in the identity crisis faced by the people. Elucidating the language and culture of Sindhi people, this paper explores the richness and distinctiveness of Sindhi society. In addition to identifying various strands of distinct Sindhi characters present in its history and politics, culture and civilization, language and art as well as in the education system of Sindh, the existing factors responsible for the suppression of this regional identity are critically reviewed and analyzed.
