"No reliable survey on the number of Galo speakers (as opposed to Galo
tribespeople, who do not always speak Galo) has to date been conducted. The 1981
Census of India put the number of “Adi Gallong” tribespeople at 8,999 (Hussain 1995).
However, the 1991 census puts the figure at a bursting 45,616! This increase is clearly not
solely due to population growth, but rather reflects the extreme difficulties of demarcating
tribal and linguistic categories in North-East India, and the absence of any effective or
commonly agreed-upon means for doing so.. The number of Galo speakers
may be estimated at around 30,000-40,000 (or more, depending on where lines are drawn)" (pg. 63)

"...the Galo remain overwhelmingly dominant in their area, their language is
spoken daily and learned as a first language by a majority of children (though certainly
not by all).... However, changes in this comfortable status quo are already apparent. With
improvements in communication, economic opportunities, and the reach of regional,
national and even international media into Arunachal Pradesh, Galo are increasingly
relying on more widely spoken Indo-European languages – usually Hindi and Assamese,
but also English – when leaving their immediate home surroundings." (pg. 63) - ДРУГИЕ ЯЗЫКИ, ИСПОЛЬЗУЕМЫЕ ДАННЫМ СООБЩЕСТВОМ СООБЩЕСТВОМ
