Islam is the predominant religion in Sindh; however, there are certain areas with a Hindu majority. Notably, in the city of Pano Aqil, the Hindu population ranks second in number. Consequently, the largest marketplace in Pano Aqil is "Mandar Gali," which features a Sikh temple. The Sikh and Hindu communities have been residing here for an extended period, and even after the partition, they did not leave their motherland.
