Its very unfortunate how many languages around the world are extinguishing with advancement in socio-economic status of a society. These days people fly to more developed cities and learn the more common or global languages, ofcourse for their own benefit, in order to suit the requirements of employers, leaving their own languages behind. We for sure cannot blame anyone. I think the goverment can pen down a policy or a scheme to save those languages under a brink of extinction. I myself am from Dai(Tai/Thai) minority in India. Its hurtful to see how gradually young people from my society are unable to verse in my language.I can see my language fading away infront of my eyes, but I am completely helpless.
