Language and Communication is ever evolving. From the mere acquisition of language and interacting in a particular language today, effective communication includes difference processes of communication. The English language has acquired an omniscient presence, thanks to colonization. But it also has been pivotal and used with great innovation. In India, particularly, as a doubled edged sword, by the native writers. Postcolonial writers have adopted the traditional English language of the colonizer to write back and expose the colonial experience. The beginnings of the twenty-first century, saw the English language being exported not through colonizers but through the computers and the internet. Colonial subjects continue to have access to English and all information due to internet and artificial intelligence. While the present-day students master the English language, how can they dismantle the colonial power construct? This paper studies the growing impact of English and suggests new ways to uphold Indian culture and knowledge systems.
