This is a really interesting article by Pratap Bhanu Mehta about the dynamics of politics and langauge in India.  Actually, it makes some pretty salient points about language choice and politics generally.  

As debates about the dominance of English and linguistic imperialism proliferate and some countries take active and coercive steps to limit its influence, Mehta argues for 'the principle of non-coercion', a linguistic policy for which he praises Nehru.
