Mr Jinnah’s death was a big big loss for the new nation :(, but it is believed that the discrimination with Bengali and their language started during Mr Jinnah’s life.

and it is sad, people like MM Alam were Bengali, sometimes theories of discrimination is even cooked to suit political circumstances, Jinnah wouldn’t have done so.

^I read about the same thing, that Urdu was enforced on Bengali people as the national language, because the govt wanted the whole country to speak one language.

even India had linguistic riots initially with south indians, punjabis etc opposed the resolution of Hindi as national language, hence India has hindi and english as official language. Bengali already had developed script, secondly Hindi is spoken by 40% of India, while Urdu is spoken by very less percentage of Pakistanis though understood by majority but it looks imported:)
