“Provincialism, Linguistic Bias, and Racialism: From Pakistan to Bangladesh” presents a critical analysis of the dangerous effects of ethnic, linguistic, and regional prejudices in Pakistan’s political history. The book explains how internal divisions and biases were exploited by India for its own objectives, and how investments were made in certain agents to sow seeds of hatred within Pakistan. As a result, the country faced serious challenges, ultimately leading to the tragic separation in 1971.
The author, Professor Syed Sajjad Husain (1920–1995), was a distinguished educationist and scholar of English literature from East Pakistan. He not only intellectually analyzed anti-Pakistan conspiracies and separatist movements but also took a firm stand against them without fear for his life. This book is an Urdu translation of his thoughts and observations, carefully arranged with subheadings and structured paragraphs to make it easier to understand.
The book serves as a warning for present-day Pakistan about the harmful effects of ethnic and linguistic divisions. It teaches readers that without learning lessons from the events of 1971, the nation risks moving toward a similarly dangerous path again. It is highly recommended for students, teachers, training institutions, and study circles to develop awareness and learn from history.
