Bombay University and Sindhi students
Abstract
Higher education opportunities for Sindhi youth in Bombay University started in Birtish rule. In 1861, the Sindh Scholarship Fund was created so that Sindhi students could take admission in Elphinstone College there after passing their matriculation examination in Bombay. But it was seen that only Hindu students benefited from this and no Muslims got a chance to take admission in the college. In the early days of Bombay University, there were “Ellis Scholarship” and “Bombay University Scholarship” for Sindhi students in the name of B. H. Ellis. The Education Department of the Bombay Presidency formulated policy to published in Sindhi language. Recruitment of teachers, increase in salaries, examination schedule, examination results and all other types of material were also in Sindhi.
This article highlights the educational aspects of Sindhi language and literature in the context of Bombay University
