This proposal offers an opportunity for two Sindhi groups living in different countries to work for common cause.

I am hopeful that Indian Sindhis and Pakistani Sindhis would strongly support each other and under-take joint projects to promote the use of Sindhi language and protect Sindhi heritage.
