  • Welcome to our latest podcast episode featuring a captivating discussion with Mr. Tariq Rahman In this episode, we delve into the intricate relationship between languages and politics, exploring how linguistic differences can sow the seeds of discord. Using the poignant example of the Hindi-Urdu conflict, we unravel how two languages once peacefully coexisted, only to become symbols of division among two religions. Join us as we dissect the aftermath of Pakistan's creation, where the imposition of Urdu as the lingua franca catalyzed the division between East and West Pakistan. Tune in for an insightful exploration of the politics of languages and their profound impact on society
    Tariq Rahman is a Pakistani academic scholar, newspaper columnist, researcher, and writer. Dr. Tariq Rahman is the Dean of Beaconhouse National University, Lahore

    Great to see your hard work. I agree with Dr Sb. The process of bifurcation is so slow that most of us don't realize until happen. The reaction of our Hindu top positions is the cause of creation of Urdu Hindi crisis in 1867. Sir Syed was of the view prior to this controversy that India is a beautiful bride and both are eyes. But after it Sir Syed established Loyal Muhammad of India also declared two different nations. Best Regards

But Muslim Punjabis Don't !! Why ? This is crazy.. Punjabi is very old language and its music is soo popular in the region but PK punjabis just abandoned Their beautiful language !! Wtf. I heard a Punjabi folk song (?) Called Bohe Baria (?) by a pakistani singer and its sound soo good. As a Bengali i love my mother tongue . BANGLA BHASA is my identity my everything. Keep Urdu as ur national language learn other languages but at least don’t feel embarrassed to speak ur language.

    My view is Hindi you may call it Urdu
    Is one language &
    Is written in 3 scripts Devnagari Roman & اردو ( उर्दू )
    Roman is the commonly used those don’t know one of Devnagari or Urdu script & commucate with each other on not fluent in writing in the script
    Where the vocabulary concerns are
    both words ( sanskrit Persian or simply say Hindi Urdu ex Aman-shanti)
    آپ سمجھ گئے ہوگن میں کیا کہنا چاہا رہا ہوں
    आप समझ गये होंगे मैं क्या कहना चाह रहा हूँ ।
    3 for same 3 words are in uses
    Like Hindi Jalavayu ( जलवायु )
    Hava pani ( Hindi Urdu ہوا پانی हवा पानी )
    आवोहवा aavohava اآوہوا

      Urdu and Hindi descended from Khari Boli which wasn’t a written language nor was it Sanskritised like Braj and Awadhi. The first evolution into a literary language it encountered was with Persian in the 12th and 13th centuries. Sanskrit was added much later around the late 19th and 20th century.

    No matter what Urdu is something thatcis gaining prominence as new generation speaks it more than the old one. If you want to bring poonjabi you must break pakistan. As sindhis and baloch and pathans have their own language. Once pakistan is broken poonjabis will lose power because they have power as they exploit other provinces. Punjab had only two things one wheat the other army or police. Wheat is gone and army and police is exposed. Now poonjabis and their language has lost its charm.

    Your thoughts have a deep rooted prejudice and bias if not hate against Urdu! Why? This is understandable because UP and Urdu always irritating to you due to the highest delicacy aesthetics and expressive quality of Urdu language which successfully replaced Persian so much so that Mughal kings had Urdu as their mother tongue like Bahadur Shah zafar! Now punjabi doesn't have or for that matter anyother language too doesn't have the lyrical melodious vocabulary that Urdu possesses and for this quality and easy to be understood by the masses became the lingua franca of the entire subcontinent which is an undeniable fact indian cenima is the perfect example where Bombay made Urdu films were and are an instant hit right from Peshawar to Trivandrum! I'm fail to understand Why the name of Urdu always irritates non Urdu speakings whether hindu or Muslim both dislike the language name as Urdu! This nothing but a mental ailment which stops people from appriciating the language with its regular name despite being entertained by its art culture music drama poetry literature and cenima! This language brought and still brings fame and fortune for its non speakers like dalip kumar Rafi Gulzar Faiz and faraz gulzar dharmindra and Gulzar etc!

You guys came from other areas as refugees and threatening them to give up Their precious things !! They are already speaking ur language following ur culture what more u want ?
      And do u understand what is emposition? What consequences it have ? A language means knowledge, culture, emotion, thoughts basically it is life of a one region. Non Hindi/Urdu specking people of the subcontinent are enjoying Hindi/Urdu cinemas songs by Their own will no one is forcing them but when you impose your language on others thay became angry because this is related to their pride. No matter how many times they enjoy Hindi/urdu Song cinemas dramas they will never give up their identity which is Their language. Respect other language other culture if you want to be treated same way. Bengali, punjabi, Hindi Urdu all are beautiful in Their own way.
