how much of Urdu is Sanskrit based and persian based?

Scientific words were invented/derived. New additions for science can be made when new discoveries are made by Urdu speaking scientists.

Well how do you think the French language keeps up with English in vocabulary? France has dedicated colleges which continuously expand the French language word for word to match the English language. The notion that new words can only be added into the language when its own scientist invent things is wrong, the problem is Urdu is not a modernized language it's a language that lags behind in vocabulary in scientific, medical, technical fields etc. There are many words in the English language which can't even be translated word for word in Urdu because Urdu's vocabulary capacity is less than English.
