CSS and English
Published in Dawn on March 20, 2021
THIS is with reference to the
letter ‘CSS and English’ (March 12) wherein the writer has claimed: “We may
have got our independence from the British, but we are still enslaved by their
language”.
I would like to remind one and all that Pakistan was created by a man who spoke
Urdu with great difficulty, if at all. All his speeches were in English, and,
according to Roedad Khan: “Even though most of the audience did not understand
a word of what he said, they knew that he was the one who would make them
free”.
Being a simple and easy-to-learn language, English should be taught to all children
from the beginning if we wish to progress as a nation.
