Vol. 4 Issue 18 – Research Paper: ‘In Search of Swaraj in ELT Class-rooms: Translation, Indian Literatures and English’ by Tushar Vyas

Away from ELT theories propounded by the western theorists, the paper aims at studying the scenario of English language teaching in Gujarat and India. While the paper emphasizes the need for English language, it addresses issues related to learner, learning, content and culture and searches for alternatives of culturally loaded English literature taught in Indian class-rooms by the name of English language learning.
