The World Sindhi Congress (WSC) recently hosted the 35th International Conference on Sindh at the University of Westminster in London to focus on the challenges faced by Sindhi people in Pakistan.

The event commenced with a warm welcome by Fahmida Khushik and Rukshana Bhutto, followed by an introduction to the conference by Executive Committee member Hafeezan Wadhio, reported ANI.

The first session, titled ‘British-Sindhi Diaspora,’ was moderated by World Sindhi Congress Representative Gul Sanai Gul Sanai.”

The session featured insights from a diverse panel, including Shahzado Wadhio of Sindhi Sangat UK, Fahmida Khushik of the International Sindhi Women Organisation, UK, Faraz Ahmed Khokhar, co-founder of Sindhi Youth Club UK, Imdad Odho of Radio Voice of Sindh, London, Ved Luhana from the World Sindhi Congress, UK, and Chandru Gidoomal of the Sindhi Association of the UK, the news agency reported.

In an official statement, the World Sindh Congress was quoted as saying by ANI, “The session was followed by emotionally charged video presentations moderated by Fahmida Khushik, focusing on the mismanagement of the Indus Water and the issue of forced conversions of Sindhi Hindu girls in Pakistan.”

“The organising committee and the participants of the conference stood up and adopted one minute of silence to pay tribute to the sons of soil, Gul Hassan Kalmati, Raj Kumar Wanjara, Sundar Agnani and Bashir Ahmed Shahani, who left this immortal world recently,” it added.

“The first, on the right to self-determination, was moderated by Saghir Shaikh and featured speakers like Qambar Baloch from Baloch Human Rights Council, UK, Lakhu Luhana of WSC, and Professor Fiona McConnell from Oxford University, UK,” the statement said.
