Benefits Of Mangroves:
They protect vulnerable coastlines from wave action because they hold the soil together and prevent coastal erosion. Mangroves shield inland areas during storms and minimize damage. For Example, during 2005 tsunami in Asia, there were no deaths in areas which had mangrove forests, compared to those areas without.

Q: Why did Pakistan choose Urdu as its national language in 1947? [7]

ANS: One of the reasons why Urdu became the national language in Pakistan is its
long history. It was widely used in Mughal period and dates back as far as the
sultans of Delhi. In its early stages it was used by the Muslim armies and became
widely spoken and understood in many parts of the sub-continent. So it was natural
that such a well-known and established language would be chosen.
Another reason for Urdu being chosen was its high status. Some of the finest early
poets such as Amir Khusrou wrote in Urdu and Sir Syed Ahmad Khan’s school at
Aligarh became a centre for Urdu study. Many religious books, including the
Quran, were translated into Urdu. So it was considered an important language with
a rich literary tradition.
Perhaps the major reason for Urdu being chosen was the fact that it was so closely
associated with the Pakistan Movement. Sir Syed Ahmad Khan supported it and the
Muslim league was formed not only to defend Muslim interests, but also to protect
Urdu. The Quaid-e-Azam was particularly keen to promote Urdu as he saw it was it
as a unifying force. Since Pakistan was a new country, it was very appropriate to
pick a language which had played a part in unifying Muslims.
