There need to be proper systems in place that ensure that local native languages are kept alive. Similar can be seen happening with the Sindhi language.

As a result, the entire community stopped using their traditional language. Historically, in 19 the Ajawa language was wiped out from Nigeria because entire speakers switched to the Hausa language for economic and practical benefits. If this system continues without some sort of revitalisation there would be a gradual death of the Sindhi language. Private schools are depriving their students of learning their first language. Sindhi has been the lingua franca of Sindh since times immemorial and it is now being completely neglected. In Sindh, native speakers themselves are destroying their language by adopting their second language as a means of communication. Every language has its own cultural and linguistic value. Pakistan is a multilingual and multicultural country and there is no harm in being bilingual and multilingual. There is a Welsh proverb, “A nation without a language is a nation without a heart.” It saddens me when people around me in Sindh speak in English and Urdu instead of Sindhi at schools, colleges, universities, offices, and homes. Sindhi is rich in mystic poetry, romantic tales and love stories. Later on, it came to be standardised in a script derived from Arabic. In the early stages, it was written in the ‘Marwari’ and the ‘Devanagri’ script. According to Shamsul Ulema Daudpota, it descended from the Virachada dialect of Prakrit. The Sindhi language is one of the oldest languages of the subcontinent. When a language dies, a part of our culture also dies with it
