Sindhi Gs question (in Devanagri Sindhi scripts) (570 words) |
 | Devanagri based Sindhi script fell into disuse in the 19th century with the standardization and adoption of Perso-Arabic based script by the British. |
| Two arguments are advanced against it -- first, that it is not practical in the present circumstances to reproduce all the Sindhi literature in a new script, and second and most importantly, it creates an unnecessary schism between Sindhis in Sindh and those in India. |
| Thus, a few Indian schools do use the Devanagri script for Sindhi instruction, arguing it as a practical matter for maintaining the interest of younger children (and their parents). |
