India want to grow into a powerful nation. She is trying to progress in all spheres. The economic, social and political life of the people is to be changed. This is a gigantic task. To fulfill this, people must have upto date knowledge of the different branches of sciences. Without expert technicians, mechanics and engineers much progress is not possible. We need them in increasing numbers. Besides this, a growing nation has also to guard itself against various internal dangers. Under such conditions, the selection of language to be studied by the youth of the country becomes very significant. English is the store house of scientific knowledge. Hence its study is of great importance for a developing country like India.
India's foreign policy is the focus of attention of all the countries of the world. The whole of the world expects to quench its thirst for peace with this policy. India wants to be friendly with all countries. She has to explain and convince others that her point of view is correct. This cannot be done without an effective medium for the exchange of ideas. English provides us with such a medium. This is a language which enjoys the status of an International language. In fact the majority of the countries of the world conduct their business in this tongue. If India wants to play her role in international matters effectively, her people must study it.
India is a country in which people living in different parts have their own language. The regional language are quiet different from one another. On the whole, there are 15 officially recognised languages and more than 1650 languages and dialects in India. The leaders and the administrators of the country cannot remain in contact with all these regions without a common language. It is not possible for everyone to know 10 or 15 languages. We do not have any common language except English. During the English language all tried to learn this language. We can feel at home in every corner of the country if we know this language. English is the language best suited for maintaining internal unity. If we want to crush the provincial, communal and separatists tendencies of our people, we must continue to study it. English is the most important means of national integration with terrorism raising its ugly head in different parts of the country. We must study English or perish.
This is the age of science. The world is changing at a terrific speed. This is all due to the scientific and technological progress which the other countries have made. If we want to keep pace with these fast moving countries, scientific and technological research must be made in our land. We can advance only through a knowledge of these subjects. Our own regional languages do not have the capacity to serve this purpose. Ultimately we have to depend upon English. To produce first rate scientist and technicians, English must be taught to our people as good and useful books on these subjects are available in this language only.
For proper mental development it is essential that we study the best literature. If we want to shed the feeling of false superiority and to broaden our minds, we must be ever- ready to take the best from others. Now the literature of other countries and of our own different languages can be easily obtained in English. In our own languages, modern upto date literature is not available. This makes it essential that our young men continue to learn English. Moreover many a youngmen go to foreign countries for advanced countries. They need good knowledge of English. Its importance for such scholars is indeed very great.
English must remain a compulsory subject for quiet a long time. It must also continue to be the medium of instruction at least in science and technology and in other subjects in higher classes. Every effort must be made to develop our own language. But till our languages are fully developed we must continue to provide facilities in our schools and colleges for its study.
