You should use Locale type variable.

  final Locale locale = new Locale("tr", "TR");          

  tts = new TextToSpeech(getApplicationContext(), new
  TextToSpeech.OnInitListener() {
        @Override
        public void onInit(int status) {

             if (status == TextToSpeech.SUCCESS) {
                int result = tts.setLanguage(locale);
                if (result == TextToSpeech.LANG_MISSING_DATA
                        || result == TextToSpeech.LANG_NOT_SUPPORTED) {
                    Log.d("class name", "tts error ");
                }
            } else {
                Log.d("class name", "tts error ");
            }
        }
    });
   tts.speak("write here what you want in Turkish", TextToSpeech.QUEUE_FLUSH, null);

The TTS engine that ships with the Android platform supports a number of languages: English, French, German, Italian and Spanish. Also, depending on which side of the Atlantic you are on, American and British accents for English are both supported.

Does it support TURKISH language

This may vary on different handsets/flavours of Android. You can check it out for yourself using the 

   mTTS.isLanguageAvailable(new Locale("tr", "TUR"));

I also want to highlight word in textview when that particular word is being spoke.

Well you have a TextToSpeech.OnUtteranceCompletedListener(), to use this you have to speak() each word, one at a time.
