Sindhi Unity is beoming visible

Dear Friends,

Sindhi political unity on Kalabagh is visible even from Washington. United efforts by PPP through out Pakistan, some elements of PML (N), religious parties and all Sindhi Nationalist parties seem to be winning hearts and minds of most Pakistanis. Yesterday's meetings with World Bank and US embassy in Islamabad and Karachi respectively indicate understanding in those quarters too.

The General has sold his soul to those who will directly benefit from Kalabagh. He will still do his best to launch Kalabagh. However, Inshaullah the dictator will find that united people have domestic and international voice.

To me, this is a major victory in the making for democratic forces. Sindhis must build on this. This unity must be nurtured for progress on other vital issues facing Sindhis such as extreme poverty.

For sustained unity and sacrifice, we must reward those who make sacrifices. Sindhi workers of Khabrain come to my mind. If we look after them, other journalists will be prepared to make sacrifice in future. If we abondon them, no one with family needs sacrifice in future. Let us help them financially.

Let us stay united and prepare for future struggle over fairness in federation. If Sindhis stay united, no one can deny our rights.

Your input and help towards development of Sindh is always welcome.
