When Pakistan came into existence in 1947, the biggest issue was which language should be given the status of state language. Because many languages ​​were spoken in Pakistan. Like Punjabi, Bengali, Sindhi and Urdu. Punjabi and Bengali were the languages ​​spoken by the majority. For example, Bengali was the language spoken by 34%. The population of East Bengal ie East Pakistan was 55%. It should have happened that Bengali language was also given the status of state language, but Urdu and only Urdu was given the status of state language.Protests will start in Bengal on giving only Urdu the status of state language. Only those who gave Urdu the status of state language thought that the way of writing Urdu is similar to Arabic and Persian, therefore it is the language of Muslims.Liaquat Ali Khan, the first Prime Minister of Pakistan, believed that Bengali was similar to Hindi in writing, so he did not want to give Bengali the status of a state language.Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah visited East Pakistan on March 21, 1948. Jinnah while speaking at the University of Dhaka said that the state language of Pakistan has become only Urdu and no other language. Jinnah gave this speech in English.This speech of Jinnah started the Bengali language movement. Bengali language movement is very important.
