Why Urdu was chosen as the national language in Pakistan?

Urdu became the National Language of Pakistan was because of its long history. Urdu, in its early stages; was widely used and understood by Muslim armies; in many parts of subcontinent. So it was very natural to choose such well known and established language.

Another reason; the high status of Urdu. Some of the finest early poets; such as Amir Khusraou, wrote in Urdu. The school of Sir Syed Ahmad Khan I Aligarh became the center of Urdu study. Many religious books; including Quran; were translated into Urdu; making it an important language for Muslims.

Perhaps the major reason was the fact: Urdu was so closely associated with Pakistan Movement. Sir Syed Ahmad Khan and Muslim League were keen not only to defend Muslim interests, but to promote Urdu as well. The Quid-e-Azam saw Urdu as a unifying force and since Pakistan was a new country it was very appropriate to choose a language that had played a role in unifying Muslims.

BTW you can see at first there are unifying factors and after that there are all dividing factors b/w the two communities

Jinnah gave his fourteen points because:
1. As a reply to Simon commission.
2. As a reply to Nehru Report.
3. To protect the Muslim rights.

Relations with India, USA and Afghanistan are important for now.
And the objective resolution question doesn't even exist I suppose.
