One of the biggest blots on the face of Indus Nationalism is the continued use of Perso-Arabic scripts rather than the homegrown scripts of Kharosthi,Gurmukhi,Khudabadi....Only then can Indus Nationalism be strenghtened and legitimized in contrast to GanguFascism and the allied Devanagari script

Urdu and the allied Perso-Arabic alphabets have a long history of gestation in the Gangu land of Western UP

All is well but if anything we need Roman script adopted. Just like we use on PDF. Life would be so easier. Works for Turks, Azerbaijhani's, Turkmen, Uzbek, Malaysia, Indonesia etc

Everyone in Pakistan knows Roman script and uses it all the time
We know two scripts
Don't you think knowing 2 scripts is better
 
. .
I was just citing examples of two Muslim countries that are without doubt success stories. Turkey and Malaysia. Both adopted Roman scripts.
Don't know whether it would make any difference or not but would be easier for kids to learn 1 script
And as far as success story is concerned Chinese Japanese Korean etc don't use Roman script
 
. .
I used Turks and Malays because they are Muslims and analogous to us rather then athiest [Chinese] and American wannabes [Japs].
But our most popular prime minister gives examples of China
Waisay no one in Pakistan has any problem in learning from non Muslims or atheists

Indus nationalism = Pakistani nationalism

I am working on the revival of the Kharosthi script, it is a significantly easier script to learn than the Arabic script and represents the various sounds and accents of our region much better.

So far, I have created a keyboard for Kharosthi and I am working on a draft for "Modern Kharosthi".

I am also compiling a list of Gandhari vocabulary words that can be introduced to our native languages.

A native script would be better, to promote national identity.
