Solution
The English language acted as a link language between the educated Indians and various parts of the country. Thus, it played a very significant role in fostering feelings of unity among educated Indians from different provinces and linguistic regions of the country. The barriers of language now broke down as the English language became the common medium of communication. Educated middle-class Indians who spoke different languages could now express their views and exchange ideas among themselves in English. A common language fostered a sense of oneness and understanding of their Indian identity
