Many organizations have been working to make the computers available in the different
Indian languages. However, because of multiplicity of the languages (there are 18 languages
recognized by the Constitution of India) the issue is quite complicated. There are only two
essential components required to represent a language on computers - The language must have a
Script, and it should be possible to represent the script on the computers. The computers
understand English because they were developed by people who used English.
In the Bharatbhasha system, one can use computers in Indian languages without paying the
extra cost for the hardware and software. Computer applications in Indian languages can be
prepared by the people who know computer programming, therefore, this part of the work has to
be taken up by those who know computers and also know Indian languages.
Nowadays there are virtual or “on-screen” keyboard that lets you type directly in your local
language script in an easy and consistent manner, no matter where you are or what computer
you’re using. Malayalam is also included
