Language is another affliction for human race that we could not do without. But imagine the evolution of pidgin to one set of grammatical definition and growth was eccentric not diversified to many many variations of creoles. No stupid could come and announce, Urdu will be the only language. Well a passive thanks to KN for reaping the platform for independence. His stupidity finally paid off. But coming to think of language, culture, epistemological values chained within nationalistic forces and stifled inside fictitious boundary lines all across this tiny planet of solar system gives me nothing but goosebumps. Did we miss a trick as primates, exponentially hindered growth potential?
Will do the math some other time. For now, my heartiest respect with the fire emanated from Royal Ponciana and the spirit of early spring to our martyrs,
Barkat Salam Rafiq Jobbar and many others who paved the road to the birth of a proud nation.
