The Sindhi Foundation recently hosted a day-long poster campaign in front of the United Nations office in Geneva to make people aware of the plight of Sindhis in Pakistans Sindh region.
The campaign was held during the 54th Session of the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva.
Besides slogans criticizing Pakistan and China for exploiting the resources of Sindh, the posters depicted the pictures of several Sindhi political activists, journalists and other intellectuals who were forcibly abducted, tortured and brutally killed by Pakistans secret agencies, reported ANI.
Speaking to ANI, Executive Director of Sindhi Foundation, Manawar Laghari said, The message is very very clear. Pakistan is a hurdle and is really a curse on the earth. No one is happy. Neither the people living in Sindh, Balochistan or Pakhtunkhwa, Saraikis, Hazaras, Chitrals, Gilgit all those oppressed people they want to get rid of this country.
