    <p><font face="Georgia">Dear Udaya sir,</font></p>
    <p><font face="Georgia">Thank you for your comments.</font></p>
    <p><font face="Georgia">You have raised a couple of points:<br>
      </font></p>
    <p><font face="Georgia">1. Interchangeable use of 0919 i.e. ङ and
        0921 i.e. ड / ড and ড় :</font></p>
    <p><font face="Georgia">Yes, it is something we may need to discuss
        and debate upon. In the ICANN context it is termed as a
        "visually confusing" set of characters. As per the mandate of
        this Root LGR procedure, these set of variants are to be taken
        care of by a different procedure known as "String Similarity
        Assessment". However we can collate all such cases and
        incorporate them in the report, which further can be discussed
        with the IP and/or taken to the String Similarity Assessment
        Panel.</font></p>
    <p><font face="Georgia">2. Regarding the use of ঙ and ঞ / ङ and ञ:</font></p>
    <p><font face="Georgia">Could you please elaborate more on this sir?
        Is your point related to variance or usage in general?
        Accordingly we can take the discussion forward. <br>
