I have met people from foreign countries in Urdu department, and they don’t make even a minor effort to try to learn proper Urdu accent. They speak urdu like Lord Maunt Batin and other Britishers of his time. In protest to their lack of interest in proper Urdu accent, I am planning to revert to all time great paindo accent. Please help me correct my accent.

Its alright if a person who does not belong to Urdu background. Absolutely nothing wrong with that. These people need to be applauded. **
No need to be disappointed. **(clapping) (Somehow the smiley option is not working)
There are so many words in English which, people who were not born in English speaking place pronounce wrong.
Also, as it is in any language, pronunciation of a language is regional bases.
*Hence Urdu or English has many accents. Absolutely nothing wrong with that. In fact, its a beauty to hear people with different accent of same language.

A Hyderabadi will not be able to sound 'Q' correctly so what?
They at least try to name their children with 'Q' in it like Abdul-Qadir middle name and at the same time a nick name of 'Qaiser'!
What is hilarious that when you hear people who HAVE Urdu background and try to speak Urdu as a person who would not have.
Example: I know some people who would say "Payekistan", even if they were born and raised in Pakistan.
Funny at best, Boooo! the least.
P.S. I don't own GS but welcome on your first post. :-)
Ju peeple are vary kind that is why I thank the warm welcome. The prablam with speeking injlish is that I don't vaant to tawisit (twist) mie tongue and turun (turn) mie lips to be able to speak like goras. But I do admire and appreciate the motivation of desis who make it an aim of life to look, behave and sound like Goras, because it needs a lot of concentration, focus and energy to be able to achieve something that doesn't come natural to you. Hain na !?!
