The importance of English language competency cannot be ignored in the globalised world, especially for students in India, where English serves as a bridge language and a platform for higher education and career prospects. As stated by Bansal and Deepika, “The place of English language has been elevated to its highest in the global India. It is considered as key to 'quality education' and 'window to world and opportunities'.” (Bansal and Deepika 30). However, students from rural origins have to struggle greatly to acquire sufficient English language competency, which affects their academic achievement and employment. This paper aims to investigate the importance of remedial English instruction for Indian college students from rural backgrounds, examine the socio-economic and educational elements causing their language problems, and suggest efficient ways to carry out remedial measures.
