A method and system for assigning priority to a talk group of a plurality of talk groups in a communication network () is provided. The method includes detecting () activity on a first talk group () via a Vehicular Repeater (VR) (). The first talk group is associated with a lower priority than that of a second talk group (). The method also comprises assigning () a higher priority to the first talk group and the lower priority to the second talk group, based on the step of detecting. Further, the method comprises dynamically re-assigning () the higher priority and the lower priority amongst the plurality of talk groups, based on detecting activity.
