Meena, Who Lives in Sukkur, Once Saw a Blind Dolphin and Knew About its History

A Folklore True Story About Blind Fish, Indus River Dolphin

My name is Meena. I live in Sukkur and take a walk to the river every holiday. One day, I witnessed a stunning scenario in which a dolphin did a high dive into the flowing water of the river and drowned. After watching this scene, I learned more about dolphins and discovered that they are blind.

What is the reason that these dolphins are blind?

The dolphins could not see it since the Indus River’s water is dirty. The muddied water obscured her vision. Their eyesight has been impaired by the murky water for centuries, resulting in blindness. No vision, but remnants of eyes.

Famous Folklore Tale About Indus River Dolphin

The renowned folktale of the blind dolphin is well known. The river’s environs were home to a large number of fisherman in 1980. People who were in the business of catching fish, cutting it up, and preparing its meat would frequently and enthusiastically catch dolphins. Dolphins were then sold there. The population of dolphins is declining these days. In those days, the territories near the river were then colonized included bandits and thieves. Fishermen started to settle far from it because they were afraid of them. Dolphin hunting stopped after the fishermen left, and the population of dolphins quickly expanded.
