Can We Really Consider Urdu as a National Language of Pakistan?

[Thorough Pro]

Our country , our rule. now get the **** off, we know what you are trying to do bharti scum.

So, today I was reading the opinions of Pakistanis in another thread and I was surprised to know that only 8% of the Pakistani population speaks Urdu as their mother tongue. As we all know that Urdu is the national language of Pakistan. And there are many other languages that are spoken by higher percentage of people as their mother tongue. So why was Urdu even made the national language of Pakistan even when there were many alternatives left? Even the origin of Urdu is in India, the arch rival of Pakistan. For comparison, Hindi have a much larger percentage of people speaking it as mother tongue in India but still it is not the National language of the nation. Infact, in India, there is no national Language and have only official languages.



Note : It is my first thread in PDF. So pardon me if there were any grammatical mistakes or the way of writing was a bit awkward.

In Delhi and UP alone. at that time they were ceremonial king's, English, Nizam and other hundreds of principalities were ruling themselves. so they were not ruling south Asia but few markets of Delhi.

Almost every Pakistani can communicate in Urdu so no consideration is required now.
