Life in Sindh
By: Shagufta Manzoor Marri
People of Sindh are full of life, they find happiness in each and every thing, even a tiny
thing makes them feel so good and satisfied, I got to know this after spending some time
in Sindh; however, I felt bad a bit for the poor girls of Sindh as their brothers are loved
and pampered more than them. They look more like caretakers of their brothers rather as
an equal being of their family. They are loved too by their parents especially by the father
still they are ignored on so many levels over their brothers.
The girls are always told to serve their brothers be it the elder one or the younger,
whenever and wherever they want to be served. They look more like a putter on and off of
their brothers clothes. Girls are told to respect and love their brothers but how pity is that
the boys are never told to pay respect to their sisters.
On the other hand, one can easily see how proletariat are treated by the bourgeoisies.
The class difference is quite prominent in Sindh and poor would remain poor as no proper
concentration or attention is given to them by the government and by so called “Wadera”
(the one who rules the area). Poor is always humiliated all the time by the upper class
masses in spite of all the hard word they do for them are never paid off for that. Poor being
scolded, taunted, irritated and in return they are told not to say a single word in front of
them rather they should still be thankful to their owners. Life is difficult for poor and the
rich makes it worst for them. Rip equality.
