 Language in India
Jennifer M. Bayer, Ph.D. Television is important for the socio-economic transformation of the country; language is the conduit between the two; and therefore, it is significant to study its impact as a means of a futuristic trend set to guide language managementin India.

While the process of shift in language is occurring due to reasons such as migration from the rural to the urban, and language contact of the rural on the borders of the urban, the role of television is bound to play a significant role in linguistic change.
