KARACHI\/ISLAMABAD: Sindh Chief Minister Syed Murad Ali Shah and Pakistan Peoples Party\u2019s Parliamentary Party Leader in the Senate Sherry Rehman have strongly condemned the recent remarks made by India\u2019s Defence Minister regarding Pakistan\u2019s Sindh province.<\/p>\n
CM Shah described the remarks as \u201ca historically illiterate and diplomatically reckless statement\u201d.<\/p>\n
In a post on X, formerly Twitter, he wrote: \u201cSindh chose to separate from the Bombay Presidency in 1936, even before the Partition of Pakistan, because the people of Sindh sought autonomy, dignity and their own political identity. Sindh is an integral, inseparable part of Pakistan \u2014 yesterday, today, and forever.\u201d<\/p>\n
CM Shah advised India\u2019s defence minister to focus \u201con his own country\u2019s internal divisions instead of daydreaming about ours\u201d.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Ms Rehman said that India\u2019s defence minister\u2019s comments are \u201cprovocative, revisionist, and deeply irresponsible\u201d, reflecting a dangerous pattern of rhetoric that undermines regional stability and violates internationally recognised norms governing state sovereignty. She noted that such statements were not just factually baseless but also expose an alarming escalation in expansionist Hindutva narrative within India that has no place in responsible statecraft.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Indian Defence Minister\u2019s remarks on Sindh are not only offensive, but expose an aversion or ignorance of history that borders on self-sabotage,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
It may be recalled that India\u2019s Defence Minister Rajnath Singh had in a recent speech said that although Sindh is not part of India today, borders can change in the future and Sindh may return to India.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
