I’ve met a couple of older Pakistani people (from the era you mentioned) who speak it fluently. Is it possible that the Dari taught during the 1950s/1960s was actually geared towards practical, everyday use, while what is being taught now is more for literary purposes rather than day to day life?

Now… In last few decades… things have changed(politically)… I myself learned Arabic as foreign language beside English. Local languages(e.g. Sindhi) are also included at Primary and Secondary level

Pakistan is more inclined toward Saudi Arab… Pakistan as Sunni State… KSA doesn’t want Iranian influence on Pakistan That may be a reason…

I heard that Urdu was the second language of Taliban… might be… they got education(in Urdu) from Pakistan…
