India has a population of more than one billion people and adds one
Australia to it's population every year. In next ten years, it will
have more people knowing and using English than those in America and
England put together! All college and professional education is being
given in English, most schools have English subject and many schools
teach all subjects in English. So Indians will significantly influence
the way English language will be used.
