WSI Welcomes the
Decision of WSC
The World Sindhi Institute welcomes the decision of the World Sindhi
Congress to join in the successive rallies to be held in USA and Canada. We
acknowledge and affirm that the issue of human rights violations
particularly the issue of arbitrary arrest and torture of Sindhi activists
will also be highlighted in these rallies.
WSI has always strived to work in cooperation with and joint support of all
groups and associations within Sindhi community; we look forward to all
members of Sindhi Diaspora community in participating and helping to make
the rallies a success; it is our belief that history will not forgive us if
we fail to achieve solidarity in these critical times.

Saghir Shaikh of World Sindhi Congress
Supports Rallies
World Sindhi Congress will joins
The World Sindhi Institute in its plan for successive rallies to be held in
USA and Canada to condemn Pakistan
Government actions in Balochistan and on Kalabagh Dam. In addition the issue
of arbitrary arrest and torture of Sindhi activists will also be highlighted
in these rallies.
These are the burning issues of
facing our peoples in Sindh and Balochistan. Sindhi-Americans and
Sindhi-Canadians must do their best to reach out to the international
community pleading for their influence in stopping these attrocities.
Last year, WSC arranged three
protests in front of the Prime Minister Tony Blair's house requesting Her
Majesty's Government to ask Pakistan Government to stop immediately the work
on
Gwadar Port, Kalabagh Dam, and Greater Thal
Canal and to bring to a halt the ongoing atrocities against Baloch and
Sindhi peoples.
WSC will carry out series of
similar protests this year in
UK.
All human rights groups are
requested to participate in these rallies in
USA, Canada and UK.
