A large number of people, dressed in new traditional clothes, ajrak on their shoulders and the Sindhi topi on their heads, thronged the streets of the province on Saturday to celebrate the Sindh Culture Day.
The Culture Day, which is usually celebrated in the first week of December, is being observed early this year in view of the sanctity of Muharramul Haram that starts in a week’s time. The main event was organised on Saturday by Sindh TV at the Karachi Press Club where countless people, including women and children, from across the province gathered to take part in the celebration. Awaz TV also arranged a huge public gathering, and the Sindh government also officially observed the day as Sindh Culture Day. Residents of Sindhi-dominated areas of Karachi, and its suburbs and coastal villages rallied to celebrate their culture sporting ajraks and Sindhi topis. People were seen dancing on cultural songs, among which the most dominant was “Jeay Sindh Jeay, Sindh Wara Jeyan”. Artistes were observed playing various indigenous musical instruments such as the flute, narr, naghara, borrindo, alghozo, yaktaro, danburo, been and dhol. Meanwhile, the Kawish Television Network is celebrating the Sindh Unity Day today (Sunday) and various programmes are planned for the event.

  1. Sindh has always been a land of saints and sufis, but strangely it has become notorious for producing some of the most corrupt that exist in this country.

    • There are even more corrupt persons and corruption in other provinces of the country…. the only difference is … sindhis are more highlighted by media
