Just wondering how many out of them can read Urdu as well ....
None of my indian muslim friends can ....
In Kashmir, virtually every literate person, Muslim or otherwise, knows how to read Urdu script.
I don't know if there's any data on Urdu literacy, but I suppose we could roughly estimate it by multiplying the number of primary Urdu speakers by the Muslim literacy rate.
58 million Urdu speakers * 60% literate = 34.8 million literate primary Urdu speakers in India
vs
11.5 million Urdu speakers * 54% literate = 6.2 million literate primary Urdu speakers in Pakistan
