Defence Minister Rajnath Singh made significant remarks on Sunday regarding the historical region of Sindh, suggesting that it could one day return to India. Speaking at the Sindhi Samaj Sammelan in New Delhi, Singh stated, "Today, the land of Sindh may not be a part of India, but civilisationally, Sindh will always be a part of India. And as far as land is concerned, borders can change. Who knows, tomorrow Sindh may return to India again."

He referenced the deep civilisational ties between India and Sindh, which became part of Pakistan during the 1947 Partition. Singh noted that many Sindhi families migrated to India after this event and highlighted the emotional connection that Sindhi Hindus have with their homeland. He quoted veteran BJP leader Lal Krishna Advani, who remarked that many Sindhi Hindus have not fully accepted the separation of Sindh from India.

Singh emphasized the sacredness of the Indus River, stating, "Not just in Sindh, but throughout India, Hindus consider the Indus River sacred. Many Muslims in Sindh also believed that the water of the Indus was no less sacred than the Aab-e-Zamzam of Mecca."

In addition to discussing Sindh, Singh addressed the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA), which aims to protect minority communities in neighbouring countries facing violence. He expressed concern for the Hindu community that has suffered and highlighted Prime Minister Narendra Modi's recognition of their plight. Singh stated, "Minority communities in many neighbouring countries have been suffering for years. Their homes were burned, their children were killed, their daughters were subjected to cruelty and torture, and people were forcibly converted."

He recalled his efforts to assist Sindhi families living in distressing conditions in Delhi, noting that he had advocated for their citizenship rights. Singh's comments reflect a broader sentiment regarding India's historical ties with Sindh and the ongoing discussions about borders and identity in the region.
