A Tribute to International Mother Language Day (21st February)

So M. Jinnah, the main architect behind the creation of Pakistan was a Bengali?

He was not the architect but a big player only in the creation. The idea of creation a muslim country was first introduced in early 1900s by bengalis and muslim league was even formed in Dhaka. N without the vote of bengali people it would never be possible to create a separate muslim state.

Why do you blame M. Jinnah for introducing Urdu as the only national language? It was basically Najimuddin and gang (Non Bengali East Pakistanis) who were behind all those mess. Even Sindh vehemently opposed the idea of Urdu. Punjab did not play any role in the creation of Pakistan except joining the bandwagon of riots against the Shiks.

It was united effort by British Indian Muslims to create separate land. It was done by both of us. They preserved the fundamental principles of founding state and we just took our self from limelight by re-imagining ourself as half Hindu cultured state(Tagore all over us). Bark all you want that we did, we did it but Pakistanis got the Pakistan, the original and we are end up with half baked water down version of Pakistan. We lost all credibility after 71.

Problem with Bengali nationalist is that they are over sensitive and filled with self made, self indulge fake pride.

Pakistan movement had nothing to with you being a Bengali. It was a Muslim nationalist movement based on two nation theory. Pakistan still has it whereas we don't.

Look in India most of the North West states accepted Hindi as the primary language due to its proximity to their own regional language. For instance Gujrat where Hindi is the primary language now. Same for Pakistan, Urdu/Hindi are sister language to their own state language. On the other hand, Bengali being the 3r most influential language in the subcontinent was too big to be ignored. If you see British Indian currency you will see English, Hindi, Urdu, Bengali, Telegu all were inscribed in the currency. Bengalis did not ask anything more than what British already gave in the undivided India.

Yes, the language movement was very selfish and self centered idea that initiated the fall of united Pakistan. Bangla was very much confined in Bengal yet Urdu was all over, more or less. Hence, it was right language for united Pakistan but who is going to put that in the cow dungish brain of Bengali nationalist.

English started from a unknown tiny Island in Europe. Now look where it gone. Its you inside which will make the language great in the world arena or not. With your mentality, I see very little prospect for Bengali.

Correct! Bangladesh is a People's Republic, not an Islamic Republic anymore. We're making good progress on all fronts, but could do better by getting rid of the crooks who rule our country!
