3. INTRODUCTION
Man is regarded as the highest of animals. He is
said to be the crown of nature .He alone has got the rare
gift of using language for communication .That is why
man is described as “HOMO-LOQUES”Meaning capable
of speech .He makes use of the language in order to
communicate his needs ,emotions ,feelings, either in
the form of the spoken or written .In this regard here is
an elegant remark which states as ,”Human beings co-
operate with each other .

4.  POSITION OF INDIA RE – INDEPENDENCE
 Due to the British invasion , English language was
widely exposed to our country .
 It is strongly believe that it made its entry .
 When the British first came to India after the
incorporation of the east India company in 1600,and
gained roots because of the education policies of lord
Macaulay .

5.  Since the days of the British Raj ,English remained the
language of domination , status and privilege in India
.The hegemonic colonial project India was to create
and maintain a class of administration officers ,clerks
and compliant civil servants to carry out the task of
ruling the vast country .
 The view expressed above makes it clear that English
was the language of rulers in India ,

6.  As a colonial subjects we had no other choice but to lean
English .In this way the language started gaining its roots
in India .
 Then the people belonging to the middle class advocated
and aspired their education in ENGLISH .
 Raja Rama Mohan Roy took the issue with all seriousness,
He was against oriented policy of education in English
which was the language rulers
 The expressed above view it becomes clear that Rja Ram
Mohan Roy preferred English to India languages for
academic ,scientific and other international reasons.

7. • POST –INDPENDENCE PERIOD :
 English is the language mostly of the colonizers during the
British Raj because accepted to the higher strata,
educationally ,economically and socially progressive classof
the Indian society during the post-independence period .
 English is recognized as an important global or
international language ,essential for professional
employment and significantly , a key components of the
cultural capital of middle class Indians.
 The foreign languages status of English in India thus
appears to have remained for a shorter period initially ,and
it gradually seems to have acquired the status of a high
acceptance .

8. • POWER OF LANGUAGE:
 The Power Language is the measure of one’s ability
to communicate effectively in given languages
.Specially one that is not native to the speaker.
 LANGUAGE POWER HAS 2 MAJOR COMPONENTS :
 ABILITY to Speak and to be understad .
 Ability to listen and to understand .

9.  The language of power is not the spoken language of every
day life therefore , has to be learned .
 Language of power has certain characteristics features as
follows bellow :
 If is a standardized variety of a language .
 If it should possess both written and spoken mode .
 It should used by many people in many country .
 It should has long shelf life and cultural heritage .
 It is highly valued .
 It is not spoken by common people ,it is a print language.
 Other key features
 1.Vocabulary 2.fluency and pronunciation

10.  THE IDENTITY OF LANGUAGE :
 The identity of language here refers to the way in
which the non native speakers use to communicate .
 In this way identity –is formed in relationships with
native speakers, extending from the past and
stretching into the future, identities are malleable and
dynamic ,an ongoing construction possible as result of
native participation with non native speakers in the
communication.

11.  Characteristics of identity of language :
 Language is a unique system.
 Language is a system of system .
 Language is the system of symbols.
 Language is a culture language is skilled.
 Language is continuous process.
 Language is dynamic and ever change.
 Symbols of language are arbitrary.

12. POLITICS OF LANGUGE :
 The politics of language is mainly based upone
1. Presupposition
2. Implicative
3. Rule of thee
4. Parallelism
5. Pronunciation grammar and vocabulary
6. Literature
7. Figures of speech
8. Peculiars
9. genre

13.  LANGUAGE POLICIES:
Yet another manifestation of the sociopolitical
domination of second language acquisition is found
in India .
 The language of education of children ,for example
,is a matter for policy :the decision by a political
entity to offer education in a designated language
.Such decisions inevitably require a judgment on the
part of the policy –making body on which language
(s) is (are) deemed to be value for the future
generation of earners (voters)in that society.

14. Under language policy some measure had taken :
1. Constitution of India states 3 language formula
2. Kannada from first standard .
3. Medium of instruction in mother tongue .
4. Liberty is given for medium of selection for minority and
5. also parents wishes of their choice ,
6. In secondary education Kannada for 150 marks ,
another any languages 2nd and 3rd languages for 100 marks.
Kannada may optional for minority.

15. CONCLUSION
Here after the above discussion , I concludes that power
of language ,its identity, its policies, and its politics
are very necessary for understanding the importance
and valuable place of English language as it has
deserved the name as medium of instruction, and it is
also known as the window to the world , gate way of
knowledge .
