Of all fear complexes, the history fear complex (of which I accuse every Hindi fanatic) is the most harmful to education. In teaching our children khari-boli Hindi, in – adopting khari-boli Hindi as Rashtra Bhasha we have been guilty of the crime of not teaching millions and millions of our boys and girls the beauty and power of khari-boli as used by Mir, Ghalib, Nazir Akbarabadi, Anis and by an impressively large number of the masters of khari-boli prose and poetry, namely, by the Urdu writers of khari-boli. Your khari- boli Hindi writers in the use of khari-boli itself are not a patch on the Urdu writers.
