Basic Principles of Indian Philosophy of Language is a concordance of the theories of sabdapramana or philosophy of language in Indian tradition. An analytic approach has been made on the theories available in paninian, Nyaya-Vaisesika, Purvamimamsa and Vedanta schools to show the consistency of the discourse made by traditional philosophers who claim themselves to be astika or Veda-centric. Attempts also hae been made to establish that the traditional Indian theories of language are undoubtedly relevant for solving some problems raised in modern philosophy of language.
