Role of Urdu Language in Pakistan Movement: A Historical Review Abstract The passion for the creation of Pakistan was triggered by many undeniable realities in the chapter of Hindu Muslim differences. These differences were pervasive and multidimensional, not just confined to religion or culture. Amongst other factors that invigorated the idea of a separate homeland for Muslims of Indo-Pak subcontinent, language was one of the major idea or part of the argument.

It also focuses on how language emerged as a significant factor leading to establish Muslims’ linguistic and cultural distinction from Hindus.
