The land of India has promoted many languages and Urdu is one of them. There is no need to get worried about its future. This language gave revolutionary slogans during freedom struggle of India. This language is also responsible for getting freedom from the British. These thoughts were expressed by Mr. Mohammed Ismail-e-Rabi Ansari, Vice Chairman of Minorities Cell of A.P. Congress Committee. Mr. Arshia Naheed, Convener of Ladies Wing of Urdu Forum also addressed the gathering. She said that A.P. Urdu Forum and Mazhar Educational Society have been making attempts to promote Urdu for a long time which are giving positive and fruitful results in the State.
Mr. Ansari, President of the Forum told that the leaders of this country reached their heights in political fields with the help of this language. In the past non-Urdu speaking persons also obtained education in medicine and engineering through the medium of Urdu. Some anti-social elements are trying to erase the identity and culture of Urdu but they will fail. It is our duty to get our children educated through Urdu medium if we want Urdu to continue in the future. There are ample opportunities of learning Urdu in the densely populated areas of Old city but despite all these facilities the younger generation is not prepared to learn Urdu. He told that there is a need to launch a massive campaign for creating awareness for learning Urdu.
