Hyderabad is written as it is mentioned here. Since it is written as it is here both in Sindhi and Urdu, there is no point to mention Sindhi or Urdu. Moreover, it is the City of Sindh.

Our post starts here:

This article makes it sound like all of Hyderabad was occupied by Hindu Sindhis before partition in 1947. But there were also a large number of Sindhi Muslims living in Hyderabad before partition who remain there today---making sense of the later reference in this article to contemporary ethnic tensions between ethnically Sindhi Muslims and the Muslims who migrated to Sindh during partition.

Also, this article makes little mention of the other side of the contemporary ethnic conflict---the early cooperative efforts of ethnic Sindhi Muslims to welcome and incorporate the migrating Muslims coming into Sindh.

Finally, I believe that there is some inaccuracy as to where in Sindh Muslims came after partition---I think the first wave settled in Karachi, with later waves settling in Hyderabad, Latifabad, and other locations.
