Defence Minister Rajnath Singh has ignited a significant discourse by suggesting the prospect of Sindh, currently part of Pakistan, potentially rejoining India, citing the enduring civilisational links between the regions. At a recent event in New Delhi, Singh emphasized that while Sindh is not geographically within India’s borders, it remains integral to India’s cultural memory and historical identity, referring to the emotional ties of Sindhi Hindus who migrated following Partition. This sentiment was echoed by Shafi Burfat, chairman of the Jeay Sindh Muttahida Mahaz, who welcomed Singh’s remarks as a beacon of hope amid alleged state repression faced by Sindhis in Pakistan. Burfat accused the Pakistani government of systemic oppression and cultural erasure, arguing that Sindh’s history and identity are being deliberately distorted. Singh’s statements come in the broader context of ongoing discussions about territorial integrity in South Asia, particularly concerning Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir (PoK), where he has previously expressed confidence that it would also one day return to India through peaceful means. These remarks signal a potential shift in India’s diplomatic dialogue regarding historical territorial claims and highlight the complex interplay of identity, culture, and geopolitics in the region.
