Sindhi Baloch

Sindhi-Baloch (Sindhi: سنڌي ٻروچ‎, Urdu: سندھی بلوچ‎) are Baloch tribes living in Sindh province of Pakistan.

Baloch migration to Sindh

According to Dr. Akhtar Baloch, Professor at University of Karachi, the Balochis migrated from Balochistan during the Little Ice Age. The Little Ice Age is conventionally defined as a period extending from the sixteenth to the nineteenth centuries,[1][2][3] or alternatively, from about 1300.[4] to about 1850,[5][6][7] although climatologists and historians working with local records no longer expect to agree on either the start or end dates of this period, which varied according to local conditions. Professor Baloch said the climate of Balochistan was very cold and the region was inhabitable during the winter so the Baloch people in waves migrated and settled in Sindh and Punjab.[8]
