INDIAN SINDHIS- Neglected Linguistic Entity

Over half a century has passed, when we migrated from our native Sindh province, due to Indian Partition.
Sindhi Hindus have always been a neglected lot in national life, although they are filled upto brim, with Indian nationalism and Patriotism. Perhaps, their unflinched faith in Indian national leaders of the time, prevented them to raise voice against the injustice of discrimination, which played havoc with their interests, their fundamental rights and their very existence as Sindhis.
Thirteen lakh Sindhi Hindus, forming 1/4th population of Sindh in 1947, were always taken for granted & were never consulted even in the matters vitally affecting them. Their wishes were not ascertained, while accepting partition of India, converting them, over-nightly, into “Aliens” in their own home land. While Punjabi & Bengali Hindus were given 1/3rd territory of their home province, in the ratio of Hindu population, Sindhi Hindus were denied 1/4th territory of Sindh in ratio of Hindu population, which was 25% population of Sindh in 1947. Radcliff Commission was appointed only for Punjab and Bengal, although all the three provinces Punjab, Bengal and Sindh were Muslim majority provinces. Justice was thrown towards Wind, again, when different yardsticks were adopted in two similar situations. Entire Assam was Hindu majority province except SYLHET district, which was Muslim majority. Similarly, entire Sindh was Muslim majority province except THARPARKAR district which was Hindu majority district, While SYLHET district was given to Pakistan after holding a Plebiscite/referendum, this right was denied to the people of Tharparkar. Indian Sindhis thus lost their right over the only Hindu majority district of Sindh. Otherwise, like Indian Punjab & Indian Bengal there would have emerged Indian Sindh comprising the districts of Tharparkar, Kutch, Barmer, Jaisalrmer & Nagaur, where majority of people speak either Sindhi language or some dialect of Sindhi language. This act of discrimination with the Sindhis was repeated in 1956 when India was reorganized on linguistic basis. While speakers of all fourteen Indian languages were given their homes in the form of linguistic provinces, Speakers of fifteenth Indian language i.e. Sindhis were denied this fundamental right. The Sindhi speaking territory was allowed to be divided between two neighbouring provinces of Gujarat & Rajasthan. Scores of provinces and Uniion territories with full fledged assemblies were created even after 1956, on the basis of language and ethnicity, but Indian Sindhis were again ignored. Perhaps our national leaders were waiting for some violent agitation on the pattern of Darjeeling & Jharkhand & Bodoland movements.
Honestly speaking, our national leadership does not feel any need for caring about interests of Indian Sindhis. As their attention is drawn only when there is violent agitation or prospects in election are affected adversely. The haphazard rehabilitation of migrant Sindhis & consequent widest dispersal throughout the length & breath of India have rendered them in to microscopic minority everywhere, so no election constituency in India threatens politician’s prospects in election adversely.
Secondly, national leadership which is virtually non-Sindhi breed, consider all the Indian Sindhis, well settled & rich people, requiring no attention. They perhaps do not know that only 5% of Indian Sindhis come under the category of rich people. Almost 5% are below poverty line and rest 90% either belong to lower middle class (70%) and upper middle class (20%).
