Urdu is a rich language developed in Avadh and Lucknow. Urdu has been court language for many years. Still the terminology used in courts in U.P. is mostly Urdu. The phrases and words like 'talaqnama', 'ikrarnama', 'nuzool'  are urdu. The lyrics in Hindi movies are mostly Urdu. 

But reading Urdu paper is dangerous. People may suspect you as Pakistani agent.  Somebody was just reading some Urdu magazine. But co passengers viewed him as Pakistani supporter only for this.  They identify Urdu with Muslim and Muslim with Pakistan. Obviously this is a consequence of the venomous environment deliberately generated by extreme right wing fascist forces.

It is sad but is happening nevertheless. Right wing is anti Muslim, left wing is supposed to be anti Hindu, Urdu is associated with Muslims, Hindi no one  wants to read because English is language of bread and butter in form of jobs. All confusing.

Urdu is considered as the language of Muslims. People in India are afraid of Muslims especially when they speak in Urdu. The terrorists from Pakistan can come to India at any time. When people read or speak in Urdu, the innocent people of India always think about the Pakistani terrorist because they cannot forget about the terrorist attack of Pakistani people in our country. They are always in tensions.  

It is like Sikhs being identified with Muslims in USA because of beards.

Urdu and Hindi is sisters. The person who think that person who is using Urdu is Pakistani, indeed don't know about the culture of India. My are have not this problem because here peoples are not using Urdu.

It is a blog and anyone could have tweeted in the news just to throw muck and make trouble for the present government ...Unless there is more evidence this news item cannot be believed since there is always the chance that  A party is quite capable of doing such things, have done so in the past ..

Looking it is stupid efforts to prove that present government is anti Urdu.

 

Urdu is refined language and learning it is no harm. it is not the language of Muslims, which is Arabic.

I have been brought up in Lucknow therefore know to speak Urdu. I don't speak Punjabi much but that is my mother tongue. I hope no one will consider me a terrorist just by listening to me. It's not the language but the intention that is case of suspicion.

Urdu is a very beautiful and poetic language, and people who want to limit it to as rightfully belonging to any one community are big fools.

"URDU" is consider as one of most sweetest language ever spoken on earth...

Many Telugu people in Hyderabad speak Urdu fluently. Never they were branded as a Terrorists.

I know nothing about Urdu. I think that Urdu and Hinidi is is somewhat alike. For me the most sweetest language is Malayalam, my mother-tongue. 

 

My father knows Urdu an my maternal grandfather was a master in Urdu. Before 1947, Urdu was the court language in PUnjab. I also love Uru, but somehow never learnt it. It is similar to Hindustani and only script is different. There is no bar and people who feel scared of learning urdu, should simply go ahead.

Urdu language is undoubtedly a very sweet and rich language which if learnt will enrich the learner. We must not forget that language is a medium of communication and everyone is free to use it.

It is sad that some fanatics are trying to create uneasiness among people in the name of language, identifying certain languages with some religions and nationality. I do not know Urdu but I know it is a beautiful language, similar to Hindi while speaking, but different in scripts and vocabulary while writing. I love every language alike. Language has no religion.

The people who link people with a particular language and religion are not fanatics, but fools. There are people who speak many languages with such an ease, it becomes difficult to know what their mother tongue is. To what religion such people are linked with ?

well it depends on the person who is speaking 

 

I feel that any language including Urdu canot become a reason for communal tension , if so one can only blame the small minded individuals who are behind it ! One more thought to cross my mind is that this Madame tweet can hope to get a job as a congress spokesperson since most of them right from the loud mouth Sanjay Jha, Priyanka Trivedi ,Ajoy Kumar ,Kesavanand few others got that position after tweeting against BJP and spreading their own brand of communalism/secularism which is praising Congress party and its madame no matter what wrong they do !

If what you have assumed is true then I feel the common people of India have nothing more to say and expect. Writing a blog with selfish motive and spreading wrong message is a sign of sick mentality. This will impact our nation negatively.
