KARACHI: Anyone whose life and death is for Sindh is a real Sindhi, said Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) Chief Altaf Hussain on Sunday.

"Why is it that every community living in Sindh was accepted but the Urdu speaking people were still not recognized as Sindhis?" Altaf Hussain wondered during his address at a book launching ceremony held here at Lal Qila ground.

Two books were launched on the occasion: a Sindhi translation of Altaf Hussain's book 'Zindagi Jo Safar' and former MNA Arif Advocate's book 'Inhi Patharon Par Chal Kay', first which is a Sindhi translation of Altaf Hussain's authored 'Zindagi Jo Safar'.

Altaf Hussain in his telephonic address from London said his book, if read by the students of Sindhi medium, would help remove misunderstandings.

He said the books translated in local languages would help spread the understanding of MQM's philosophy.
