Language Planning in Pakistan Language is vitally the most important aspect of human beings. It is the trait which differentiates humans from non-humans. Language riot only represents human thoughts but it also distinguishes societies, cultures and nations. Language gives identity to the diverse groups of humans living in this world. Language also acts as the identity marker of various groups living in a single culture. It acts as the primary factor in the agents of power. Considering language in relation to its role in politics, it is the basic tool in identity and nationality formation, and plays a vital role in hegemonic and counter-hegemonic struggles. While undergoing this research, the researcher concentrated upon the following assumptions and issues. Firstly, language planning is the most important tool to make the orientation of the educationists towards a language to use it as a standard in teaching and learning. Secondly, Pakistan has two languages working side- by-side with each other-the national language (Urdu) and an official language (English)-but, here is no defensible or established language policy for the use of either of the two languages. Thirdly, there is no identification of the use of any language as the medium of instruction. Hence, several varying educational systems are working simultaneously in Pakistan having their own weaknesses and strengths.
