Jaipur, May 2. Rajasthan Assembly Speaker Shri Vasudev Devnani has said that the Sindhi community has made an unprecedented contribution in the freedom movement and development of India. Despite enduring many troubles, tortures and pain in the circumstances arising after independence, this community has played an important role in increasing the country's GDP by giving its invaluable contribution to the development of India with its sacrifice, dedication, hard work and determination. Even today, this fighting community is a partner in small to big businesses and industries in the country and abroad due to its entrepreneurship.
Shri Vasudev Devnani was addressing the grand ceremony of Sunhari Sindh 2.0 as the chief guest at the Upvan Lake on Pokhran Road in Thane near Mumbai on Thursday evening under the aegis of Federation of Associations of Sindhi, Thane. Before this, he inaugurated the ceremony by opening the ribbon knot. Shri Devnani said that the contribution of the Sindhi community in the development of India and the positive change in the industrial movement has always been appreciated and respected by all. We all are very proud to be an integral part of the Sindhi culture and community.
Shri Devnani told that during his tenure as the Education Minister of Rajasthan, he had included the eminent personalities of the Sindhi community in the school education curriculum and at present, the names of many places in the historical city of Ajmer, which were symbols of colonialism and slavery, have been changed to the names of Indian culture and great men, in which the famous Foysagar Lake of Ajmer has now been renamed as Varun Sagar.
Talking about the glorious Sindhu culture, Vidhan Sabha Speaker Shri Devnani said that with the blessings and inspiration of Jhulelal Ji, the god of water, the traditions of the Sindhi community are still intact and the Sindhi community has produced great personalities like Hemu Kalani and Sant Kanwarram. Shri Devnani has mentioned Sindh in the national anthem of India and told how after 2200 years of struggle, the Jews had returned to Jerusalem, in the same way Sindh was also a part of undivided India which will return to its own.
Vidhan Sabha Speaker Shri Devnani congratulated the organizers for the live display of Sindh's history in the four-day grand celebration of Sunheri Sindh 2.0 organized at Upvan Lake in West Thane and said that this will give people an opportunity to see and feel the roots and civilization and culture of Sindh closely.
