Members of Pakistan’s federal parliament and the provincial Sindh Assembly have unanimously condemned remarks made by Rajnath Singh, India’s Defence Minister, which suggested that the province of Sindh could “return” to India — a statement widely viewed as provocative and historically unfounded.
During a session led by the speaker in the national parliament, a resolution was presented and adopted rejecting Rajnath Singh’s statement and reaffirming that Sindh is an inseparable and integral part of Pakistan under its constitution. The resolution also urged everyone to avoid any biased or destabilising remarks that could harm national unity.
Similarly, in Sindh Assembly a joint resolution was passed by both ruling and opposition parties condemning the remarks as “delusional” and a “deliberate distortion of history.” Assembly members stressed that such statements violate diplomatic norms and international law, and reaffirmed Sindh’s status as part of Pakistan forever.
The government – including the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Pakistan – had already rejected the comments as “dangerously revisionist,” calling them a manifestation of an expansionist mindset and a threat to regional stability.
