Introduction to Sindhi News Media

Sindhi language’s roots date back to centuries ago. It is one of the major languages spoken in Pakistan as well as in some parts of India by the Sindhi community. However, despite its deep-rooted cultural history, it is often overshadowed by the mainstream media of Urdu, Hindi and English in both the countries. Sindhi language has been used for communicated for a long time. Talking about its history, it is an Indo-Aryan language belonging to the historical Sindh region in the Northern part of Indian Subcontinent. The name Sindhi is derived from the word Sindhu, which is the original name of river Indus.  In India, it is majorly spoken by Sindhi communities residing in Maharashtra, Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh.

Sindhi media in India is not as diverse as Hindi and English media. However, there are several publications that are consumed by Sindhi readers on a regular basis. The first Sindhi printing began in 1848 while the first Sindhi book was published in 1858.

While 1838 was the first recorded date of publication of Sindhi printing, it is said that it existed before then as well.  Sindhi print media came into existence as a result of rising Sindhi nationalism specifically. Several Sindhi newspapers were founded and are published ever since reflecting the interests of readers. Among all, the most popular Sindhi newspapers include Akhand Sindhu Sansar, Chingoon, Dainik Farz, Dile Sindh, Gruhini Geeta, Hindu, etc.
