The People Linguistics Survey of India tries to give an idea of the extant and dying languages of India. It is the outcome of a nationwide survey of languages that has been documented by linguists, writers, social activists, and members of different speech communities. The Languages of Arunachal Pradesh documents the major languages that are spoken in the state not only languages of well-known tribes, but also lesser known ethno-linguistic groups that are found within the larger ethnic groupings. The main objective of this volume is to bring numerically smaller ethno-linguistic communities into focus and provide them with a platform to share their views about their language and culture as they perceive it.
