Her areas of interest are Structural Linguistics, Socio-linguistics, Translation & ELT and Language Politics. An attempt is made to trace the formation of Kannada Linguistic State as a unique exercise. The difference between Unification of Kannada speech areas and formation of Tamil and Telugu Linguistic States is traced. The narratives coined for Ekeekarana are seen in the light of multiple languages coming under the umbrella of Kannada. Linguistic hegemony is seen within the framework of the Constitution.
