Language on its own does not prove one way or the other the direction
a migration went. Many other factors have to be considered.

The Aryan Invasion Theory and the Out of India Theory are both
conjecture and speculation.

That depends, so far I have read three different interpretations of
the so-called data (which is supposed to be the same data) LOL.

I.E.:

1. It proves the Aryan invasion (or Aryan migrations took place) as
they entered India displacing the original Dravidians. The result a
genetic and cultural mixing.

2. Indians migrated outside of India spreading their languages.
Causing genetic dispersal and the grafting of various languages,
concepts and ideas.

3. Two way migrations, clashes, Trade etc took place (in the North)
which was more restricted in the South until later which caused a
genetic mixing and two way dispersal of ideas, words etc.

And so on.
