Various theorists have used arguments and counter arguments on de-westernisation or dominance of the West on media theories. The subjectivity of the media theories highlights the vulnerability of the subject even further as it is intrinsically linked to the cultural practices. As such, the paper lists out prominent arguments on the subject and states major changes suggested in the draft National Educational Policy 2019. These may be looked upon as initiatives of the government that augment India's stand and individuality to crystallise education from the primary levels such that the Asian giant can mark its indigenous footprint by amalgamating Western-dominated theory with local skilling adequately.
