The Sindhi diaspora (Sindhi: ٻاهري ملڪي سنڌي) consists of Sindhi people who have emigrated from the historical Sindh province of British India,[1] as well as the modern Sindh province of Pakistan,[2] to other countries and regions of the world, as well as their descendants.
Apart from the Indian subcontinent, there is a large and well-established community of Sindhis throughout different continents of the world including Malaysia, Oman, Singapore, UAE, USA and UK[3] where they have established themselves as a trade diaspora.[4][5]
The partition of British India brought in its wake a large-scale exodus of non-Muslims from Sind to independent India.
Sindhis living abroad have attempted to have an organised one voice for decades. In many ways those who migrate from Sindh to North America remain connected to and deeply concerned about Sindh.
