Some Excerpts: ‘ The Gadia Lohar community has its own language, but it does not have a name, according to Prasannanshu, the director of the Centre for Linguistic Justice and Endangered Languages at National Law University, Delhi. The centre’s indigenous and endangered languages project has named it the Gadia Lohar Bhasha. “It is endangered because the number of speakers is small. The pressure of assimilation and educational facilities for the language are practically nonexistent,” he said. The challenge in front of the community is huge. “Gadia Lohar have to pay attention to their educational and economic development, and at the same time they have to preserve their culture and language,” he said. Reena and Sankhla are both currently working on the indigenous and endangered languages project, on a contract basis.’
