Partition Memoirs!
The partition has had a greater impact than one can imagine. There is that tiny flame of Sindh lit in each Sindhi’s heart through the generations because that’s where the sense of belonging comes from.

एक कविता उन पूर्वजों के मान में जिन्होंने धर्म बचाने हेतु प्राण गवाए उनकी कुर्बानियों ने सनातनी सभ्यता के इतिहास के पन्ने सजाए। अयोध्या फ़ाऊंडेशन ने उनके वार्षिक श्राद्ध तर्पण की नींव डाली है क्या आप भी उन बलिदानियों की मुक्ति का संकल्प लेना चाहेंगे? https://youtu.be/HTo-h8LR7I8?si=7il1gdHizwcIVNtT
