Hmm.. Now I'm really confused.

Currently "Urdu Nastaliq Unicode" is in
/etc/fonts/conf.d/65-nonlatin.conf. Hence it is the default already,
isn't it?

Title:
  Urdu with better support:  Default Fonts, Kbd Layout

Status in “fontconfig” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “fonts-nafees” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in “fonts-nafees” package in Debian:
  New

Bug description:
  Default fonts in Ubuntu show ugly Urdu text.

  It's better that language-selector sets "Nafees Regular" (Nafees Web
  in fonts-nafees package) as default font for all font families
  (SansSerif, Serif...except mono) used in Ubuntu.

  I would like to ask, if language-selector is able to set specific
  keyboard layout for Urdu for 1st time?

  Please Shabbir:
  Could you write here the best setting for Urdu Fonts (Using "Tweak Tool": Scale Factor, Hinting, Anitaliasing, Size)?
