Language, in Post colonial context is a matter of concern and discussion for the kind of effect it has brought to the people. Even after several decades of the Britishers granting freedom to the colonized countries, the language that the colonizers spoke seems to be still relevant to the present context. India, for instance, has one of the largest English-speaking population in the world while it is now more than sixty years of independence that the country is enjoying.
Secndly the concept of language is related because the literature that evolved expressing the pain of colonialism had to be expressed in a language known by many. Many of the 'previledged' people of the colonized age who studied English were the first to voice against the tyranny of colonialism through English. Yet those literatures were regulated and barred from being published. Today however, we have high regard for the literature of English written about the colonized days. That is precisely the reason why we term it as the 'post-colonial literature'. Language, has played a major role in its realization.
