Central Universities to Launch Centres for Endangered Languages

Central University of Karnataka, Gulbarga and Central University of Kerala, Kasaragod have been received a grant of Rs. 3.6 crore each from University Grants Commission (UGC) to establish centres of endangered languages.

The two Central universities had been given the mandate to take up research on endangered languages while coordinating with each other.

To give a start to this initiative, the Central University of Karnataka would soon organise a two-day workshop to prepare a work plan for setting up a centre for endangered languages.
