The Colonial Legacy and Linguistic Hybridity
The genesis of Indian English lies in the intricate power dynamics of British imperialism.

Indian English is not merely a linguistic construct; it is a reflection of the cultural identity and aspirations of the Indian people. The book explores how Indian writers, intellectuals, and activists have used English as a tool of self-expression and cultural empowerment.
Through case studies of influential figures, the author demonstrates how Indian English has become a vehicle for articulating national identity, critiquing social norms, and envisioning a more equitable future.
Postcolonial Studies and the Challenges of Linguistic Imperialism
"The Rhetoric of English India" also delves into the complexities of postcolonial studies, examining the ongoing legacy of linguistic imperialism in the post-independence era.
