It has been adopting different scripts with the passage of time. Its initial phase of script may be seen in the form of Indus valley script.

Yet it is much influenced by Urdu and present Sindhi alphabetic signs. The investigative analysis of present Siraiki script and its gradual evolution era has been discussed in this article.
