The Jeay Sind movement is [[Sindhi nationalist]] movement founded by [[G. M. Syed|G M Syed]] in 1972 to liberate Sindh from Pakistan. It was later renamed Jeay Sindh Tahreek by militant groups. Sindhi separatists propagate the view that they suffer from disenfranchisement at the hands of Pakistan's [[Punjabi people|Punjabi]] majority. They think that Sindh in federal Pakistan will never receive its rights and status promised during the Pakistan movement and in the Lahore resolution of 1940 according to which provinces of Pakistan were to be autonomous and sovereign and Pakistan will be a loose federation of various states. |
