Urdu (اردو) was an official language in post-partition 1947 to 1971. It is still spoken by the settlers from Bihar and Uttar Pradesh. They are living in Saidpur, Dhaka particularly Old Dhaka, and other parts of Bangladesh.
With time, though, the dialect spoken by the Nawabs became known as Dhakaiya Urdu. As noted by P. K. Bandyopadhyay, “Urdu [was] the mother tongue of the Ashraf (the elite class) and Bengali [was] the mother tongue of the Athraf (the commoners).” Alimullah would pass away in 1854, with Khwaja Abdul Ghani rendered as the head of the family estate.
