In response to this I would say that #2 is the most important pillar, something which Jimbo used to quote on his userpage (this seems to have gone now). I would agree with him because a projects as wide reaching as the foundation's cannot prosper without this. We need to keep things as open and accessible as possible and only through NPOV can we encourage people to get involved. If I was a non-Muslim speaker of Urdu, I can imagine being concerned that the site was heavily orientated in that direction, which is not the idea. Referring to #1, it's an encyclopedia and the only purpose of having different languages is to allow others to read and edit, not to make any other divisions.
But are you a non-Muslim speaker of Urdu who has complained and dealt with this locally on the project? I'm not suggesting that you shouldn't raise concerns, but a knee jerk reaction is also not called for if there is a place to address this within the Urdu Wikipedia and getting active users from within that project to deal with the issue. I just havn't see what steps are being done from within the community to address the issue. If you have tried to deal with this issue and admins are being belligerant in keeping this sitenotice up, that would be a completely different issue altogether. Even then, we are only getting one side of this issue and assuming bad-faith.
