It is aimed at revealing the deep meaning of interactions as they affect our daily lives. The methodology for the research is through selection and consequent analysis of utterances and other social behavior in the text.

The textual, political and socio-cultural analysis have revealed the imbalances in the use of language among different strata of the society.
