The British were not that interested in Sindh. What they were interested was in stopping insurgents from Sindh attacking the British troops over the border (sound familiar). The easiest way to stop this was to capture Sindh, which they did.
The commercial possibilities of the river Sindh were an additional attraction.
The roads and rivers of Sindh were opened to British trade by a treaty in 1832.
Like any process of Colonialisation, annexation of Sindh was shameful because the superpower of the time, British Empire just took a non-beligerent land. Sindhi State had in fact allowed British to remain peacefully, and was interested in trade with rest of India. British however did not care for any such niceities and attacked and took over Sindh. In his report back to home government in London of his conquest, Charles Napier wrote, "Peccavi" - latin for "I have sinned". Guilty much?
