Hyderabad: "Urdu language has strong roots in India, and it is wrong to associate it with Muslims only," said Former Hyderabad Police Commissioner and advisor, minority welfare, Government of Telangana A K Khan in his inaugural speech at the two days national seminar on 'Teaching English Language & Literature to Urdu Speakers', at MANUU, on Thursday.
The seminar is being organized by the Centre for Professional Development of Urdu Medium Teachers (CPDUMT) of Maulana Azad National Urdu University (MANUU).
The chief guest, AK Khan, further asserted that the present era signifies the rule of language. Language is a mode of acquiring and transmitting knowledge, but understanding it is the key in teaching. Urdu is a sweet language and can be used to spread all kinds of knowledge, he added.
Professor Syed Mohammed Haseebuddin Quadri, Head, Department of English while delivering the keynote address said that the students who know more than one language are found to be relatively more intelligent. Students should not refrain from learning multiple languages, he remarked.
Dr Muhammed Aslam, Assistant Professor, Dept. Of English conducted the proceedings. Prof. Mohammed Abdul Sami Siddiqui, director of the centre, proposed a vote of thanks.
