The Urdu revival


In the past decades Urdu has knock downed in India. People ignored their official language, Hindi and English was taken place but now people of India joint hands for the revival of their official language. Past Sixty years displayed the “corpse of Urdu,” (“Urdu ki lash”) in India. Indian film industry made a film on the “corpse of Urdu and a novel also has written. This move based on the death throes and termination of official language. This move played a immense role for the revival of Urdu. It resurrected official language and it start breathing a new life in India it brings back to life. Now Urdu is rising in India like a fairy tale and out of dead Skelton. This revival will defiantly effect on the mindsets (developed in the past) which would limit the outreach of Urdu through extremists’ male dominance.

On October 23-2010 in Hyderabad city of India people celebrated Urdu day all over the country. This called “Urdu city” on this day as it was the busiest day for revival of official language .there was a huge difference among the mindsets and attitudes of people belonging to different regions towards the revival of Urdu in India. Many seminars and conferences have arranged for the Urdu day. 

In most of the seminars one thing was common which is discussed by most of the people was how this has, or has failed to bring about real change in Muslim society. What is the fundamental role of Muslim women in the rebirth of Urdu? And will the women play a fundamental role as a camp and followers with men in future for the development of the language. Because women are the mother, sisters, daughters and most of the time they stayed at home so they can play a notable role to teach basic language to children. Many suggestions and dimensions were decided in these seminars for the further development of Urdu, to make its rebirth fastened and strong.
