Observing that Hindi’s dominance has overshadowed Urdu, former Karnataka Urdu Academy Chairman and retired IPS officer Khaleel Mamoon has stressed on the need for developing programmes for Urdu in such a way as to meet modern requirements.

He was delivering the keynote address during the inauguration of the two-day national seminar on “The Changing Scenario of Urdu Language and Literature” organised by the DoS in Urdu, University of Mysuru (UoM) in collaboration with Karnataka Urdu Academy, Bengaluru, as part of UoM Centenary Celebrations, at EMMRC auditorium, Manasagangotri in city this morning.

Expressing disappointment that Urdu has remained the language of one religion in the country, Mamoon said that efforts should be made to remove the misconception that Urdu is the language of Muslims alone.

Pointing out that one of the basic reasons for the downfall of regional languages is theprominence of English as the language of international communication, he said that strengthening of Urdu Press and a dynamic policy for increasing the circulation of Urdu newspapers is very important in the changing scenario of Urdu language and literature.

Karnataka Urdu Academy Registrar Siraj Ahmed Khalid, Prof. S. Masood Siraj of Urdu Department, UoM, Prof. Mohammed Anwaruddin of Hyderabad University and others were present. The 2-day seminar, which concludes tomorrow, features special lectures and sessions on promotion of Urdu language.
