Summary
The goal of this Interventional Study is to develop and test the Indian Adaptation of Melodic Intonation Therapy (MIT) for Indian patients in with post-stroke Non-Fluent Aphasia (PSNFA). The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: • To develop the MIT Indian Adaptation tool and check its feasibility • To compare the MIT with standard speech rehabilitation in patient with PSNFA.

The speech recovery at 12 weeks will be compared in both treatment arms.
