Well, I would say based on interacting with 200 + Pakistanis in my life, from a number of ethnicities and social strata (unfortunately no bonded Sindhi laborers though), my estimates are as close as you can get.

One caveat that we can introduce is that my estimates are based on people who are somewhat educated and have some idea of what happened in 1971.

That makes it all the more scary given that in many countries, the uneducated, ill-informed people are the more racist.
