No reproduction of content, video , or photographs may be reproduced without the expressed written permission of the Executive Director of International Unity for Freedom and Equality The quantity of Human Rights violations that have occurred with the destruction of this ancient Holy capital of ancient Sindh cannot be accepted by the international community. It is a serious violation of the rights of indigenous peoples according to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights of the United Nations. This incident will not remain ignored. We demand justice for the entire Hindu communities of Sindh for the needless destruction of this sacred ancient capital. Below is the history of this land and is recorded even in Muslim Chronicles so it cannot go unnoticed!
Aror, the ancient capital of Sindh was the centre of trade and commerce in Ancient India. Sindhi, Hindi, Punjabi and Urdu were spoken here. People followed the religions of Hinduism, Sikhism, Buddhism and Islam in Aror. The name of the Holy city of Aror was derived from a place named Aror which was once the ancient capital of Sindh. It was ruled by King Dahir. In 711 C.E. Muhammad bin Qasim ruled the city and moved the capital to Mansur in the 10th century as a result of a massive earthquake. We know the history according to the Muslim Chronicles. The Aroras originated from Aror. They were the Kshatriya of Aror.
The Kshatriyas were members of the second of the four great Hindu castes, the military caste. The traditional function of the Kshatriyas is to protect society by fighting in wartime and governing in peacetime. During the time of Maharaja Ranjit Singh the Aroras were settled in Amritsar. In 711 CE the Arabs invaded Sindh led by 17 year old Muhammad bib Qasim and Sukkhur and all of Sindh and lower Punjab. became part of the Umayyad Caliphate. According to Bhim Singh Dahiya, Aror was the capital of the Rai Dynasty. Rai means "king." Rai Diwaij was a powerful chief who whose rule extended up to Kashmir and Kannauj kingdoms in the East, Makran and the Arabian Sea in the West, Saurashtra in the South and Kandhan and Seistan and the hills of Sulaiman in the North. He formed alliances with most of the rulers of India. Raj Diwaij's son was Rai Siharas and his son was Rai Sahasi. These were kings of the Rai Dynasty. The Rai Dynasty ruled over Sindh for nearly 202 years. Rai Sahiras II was the second last ruler of the Rai Dynasty and patronized Hinduism as well as Buddhism around 610 C.E. "The rulers of the Rai Dynasty patronized both the religions of Hinduism and Buddhism. This is evidenced by the ruins and the description of that era in the Muslim Chronicles. Rai Dynasty emporers established a Temple of Shiva located in Sukkhur close to their capital of Aror on the banks of the Indus River." ----Anupama Verma---- |
