You see when i open a website with multiple languages like google then i by default go to the hongkong version of that website. ie. google.com.hk
How did this happen?? I have no any data in my PC about hongkong and i have not set any of details to hongkong.
Plz help me set the default language to english!

Look a bit below the search box for the link google.com in english. click it and you will go to google.com. then you can go to google india if you like from the similar link.

tell me if it helps.

If you have not configured any proxy, then most probably some malware could done that for you. Please check your computer for malwares.

Another thing you can do is try using another browser (by default without proxy).

And last, if all fails, use some INDIAN proxy! :D
