With the usage of our ancient language on the decline and the increased pressure of the english langauge and its script on us ,one of the courses is to opt for Sindhi in the roman language also .Who will teach them Arabic or devnagiri script ouside India and Pakistan .

Fortunately this has been achieved by the world Sindhi Sammeln at 2OOO9 in LA , which has presented standardised Roman script for the sindhi language . Top and recognised scholars of the Sindhi language were the guiding force to achieve success .

What does it matter if we read Shah jo Risalo in roman script ?It is better than not being able to read at all.After all Arabic script was intruduced only a century before .All scripts must coexist so that our culture continues existing , Visit : http://www.chandiramani.comSection no. 18 Sindhi section

You have mentioned that Sindhis themselves (especially the educated ones) are neglecting the language by not speaking in it. However i feel this also because of the increasing influence and pressure from non Sindhis especially Punjabis that the language is reducing in its speakers. If this goes on only two languages will prevail i.e. Urdu and Punjabi .All of the remaining culturally rich regions like Sindh, Balochistan will either be converted into Punjabis or they will be reduced to insignificant minorities and Punjabis will rule everywhere and so will their language.

All of the Sindhis and Balochis need to fight this tibetisation (only option) and make Sindhi and Balochi respectively as compulsory first languages in both these provinces with urdu and punjabi optional.

Remember Language is your identity and by speaking punjabi or urdu more than sindhi you are obliging the very people who want to eliminate your culture and establish their rule everywhere in this case punjabi.
