Vanished Temples of Sindh: Echoes of a Silenced Civilization

The trajectory from Sindh’s position as a vital center of Indic civilization to its present state of religious and cultural amnesia.

The silence, both global and national, that has surrounded the systematic desecration of sacred sites, contrasting it with international responses to similar heritage losses elsewhere.

Temples are not merely places of worship, but civilizational anchors that embody language, art, tradition, and communal memory.

The erasure of Sindh’s temples is not simply a Pakistani phenomenon but also an Indian failure of memory and heritage preservation.

Shatrubodh is necessary to resist ongoing forms of cultural attrition, as it reclaims and frames memory as both a moral imperative and a civilizational survival.
