-'''Shoro''' ({{lang-sd|{{Naskh|شورو}}}}) is a [[Sindhis|Sindhi]] tribe found in [[Sindh]], [[Pakistan]] and parts of [[Gujarat|Gujarat ]] and [[Rajasthan]] states of [[India]]. Shoros are pure Sindhis of [[Rajput]] origin and have been known to be warriors in history. Shoros are believed to be the descendants 'Shoro', an estranged son of a Rajput chief in ancient [[Sindh]] from whom they derive their name.

-According to ''Tarikh Mazhar-e- Shahjahan''''<ref>https://archive.org/details/san_0746/page/4/mode/1up</ref>''' written by one of Mughal Emperor [[Shah Jahan|Shahjahan]]'s ministers Abul Qasim Meerak, Shoros constituted a major portion of [[Samma dynasty|Samma]] Army during Samma dynasty (1336 to 1524) particularly around [[Thatta]], then capital of the Kingdom of Sindh. Other tribes who constituted Samma army were Samejos and Dalls. As recorded by Meerak, after [[Mughal Empire|Mughal]] invasion of Sindh and rule by [[Arghun dynasty|Arghuns]] and [[Tarkhan dynasty|Tarkhans]] under Mughal tutelage (1524-1591) which had brought end of the Samma dynasty, Shoros went into a long insurrection led by Ismail Shoro. The repeated attacks by Shoro insurrectionists on Arghus/Tarkhan army and frustration over failure to suppress their ambushes led Meerak to brand Shoros as 'terrorists' and 'miscreants'. Ismail Shoro was killed in an attack by Tarkhan forces on congregation of Shoros offering Eid prayers in their village near Jhimpir. In the battle that ensued son of Thatta ruler [[Mirza Jani Beg Tarkhan|Mirza Jani Beg]] leading Tarkhan forces was also killed.

-During the protracted insurrection Shoros left fertile plains of Sindh and retreated to less accessible areas like hills and mountains of [[Dadu District|Dadu]], Thatta, [[Malir District|Malir]] and deserts of [[Rajasthan|Rajisthan]] and [[Gujarat]]. These became their permanent habitats with the result that unlike other tribes they were deprived of fertile agricultural lands and also lagged behind in education during the British rule.
-In present day Pakistan Shoros are found mostly in lower Sindh especially [[Thatta]], [[Sujawal]], [[Jamshoro District|Jamshoro]] [[Dadu District|Dadu]] and [[Malir District|Malir]]. In [[Thar Desert|Thar]] desert of Pakistan and India Shoros are known by their distinct branch name of Aresars. Population of Shoros has never been enumerated but it is believed to be around half a million.
