Indian Script Code for Information Interchange

Indian script code for information interchange is a way of writing and communicating information in the different languages of India, such as Hindi, Bengali, Tamil, and many others.

Imagine you have a toy with different shapes and colors: a triangle, a square, and a circle. Now imagine that each shape and color stands for a different letter or symbol in your language. For example, a red triangle may represent the letter 'A' in Hindi, while a blue square can stand for the symbol 'ख' in the same language.

In Indian languages, such symbols and letters are combined in different ways to form words and sentences that convey meaning. The Indian script code uses a set of standardized rules and guidelines for encoding and representing these different symbols and letters in electronic form.

So, when you type on a keyboard or send a message on your phone in an Indian language, the text is first converted into the appropriate Indian script code, which enables computers and other devices to recognize and display the text correctly. It allows people to communicate in their native languages and make use of technology for different purposes, such as online shopping, social media, and education.
