Story in a National Daily on English as link language and mapping out pieces on front page on an average

Story in a National Daily on English as link language and mapping out pieces on front page on an average


As we came across a story in a prominent daily published from Delhi on English gaining strength as link language it was time to figure out stories mapped out on front page on an average. The story expanded its brief and probably looked at the prospect of two individuals arriving from the same mother tongue who would prefer to converse in English rather than their mother tongue and this essentially explained the rise of ENGLISH AS ONE. Changes in school and inter-state migration helped English to pole vault knowing fully well in the decades to come it won't halt. According to the story largely based on an institute study, the number of children studying in English almost doubled from 12 to 23 per cent between 07-08 and 17-18, waiting in the wings to treble even in areas where there would be none of the winning trophy and team. English landscaped schools are quite gung-ho over its reach and acceptability and English is well the language of future amidst a worldwide crisis that sends signs of rupture.

English we study and English we learn is different from offers that we systematically spurn. English is the language that developing countries embrace and India is no different to join the race. English is the language we employ to converse in South India; it is primarily used to pile on offers that no one can reverse. English helps us to keep up with the times we live in this worldwide crisis that has engulfed and not evaporated; English is employed to trace signs of recovery that has perennially perpetuated.   

As the National Daily dropped hints on meeting between Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Angela Merkel, interlocutors would have employed English that doesn't seasonally buckle. The two leaders exchanged Namaste essentially an Indian Greeting, the picture between the two figured in National Daily Printing. 

Another Story in the National Daily was on DU Admission Tests to be held from September six to eleven and probably those taking tests would figure some coming with name Michael Bevan. Those who don't take tests might lose an academic year and this is the foremost fear. How Admission Tests would be held when worldwide crisis hasn't lulled is the foremost thought in a nation caught in Ladakh boundary knot.

As we flipped through pages to find stories of those having left their cages, thoughts were trained on IPL and its losing gambit, being held in a territory with UAE permit. It is a challenge to hold over 40-day event when worldwide virus crisis hasn't receded keeping future tense and not accelerated.
