removed.</font></p>
<p><font face="Georgia">2. Nepali corpus words getting
invalidated:</font></p>
<p><font face="Georgia">As rightly pointed by IP, all the below
words are invalid as per Nepali writing norms, hence they
did not pass the test. Wrong construct ऒ् i.e. V + H</font></p>

<p><font face="Georgia">3. "अफगानिस्तान" should have passed the

went wrong. <br>

Maybe a typo. <br>
</font></p>
<p><font face="Georgia">5. All the references pertaining to
INSCRIPT standard have been withdrawn as it is not available
online, being a paid resource. Instead, omniglot references
have been added.</font></p>
<p><font face="Georgia">6. Rationale for excluded code-points
could not be added. Will be added soon. <br>

Please find attached, draft LGR document for Devanagari.

Request all to give the feedback on the same so that it
can be finally modified for sending across to the
Integration Panel for comments. <br>

There are two things that I have marked in red in the
document. <br>
1. The name of the accompanying XML file which we will
finalize after the finalization of the LGR rules and
repertoire. You may please ignore that for now.<br>
2. Some of the languages which are yet to be taken into

</font> <font face="Georgia"><br>
Apart from that, I have taken into consideration the
feedback received for Nepali and Newari . Only the
Variants have not been taken into account as they
conflict with the "No confusingly similar cases as
Variants" policy of LGR Procedure. I will separately
reply to the proposed variants in Nepali and Newari.
However, some such cases pertaining to Santhali have
been added to the Variant table. We can discuss the same
over the mails. If required, will make further changes
if needed. <br>
</font> <font face="Georgia"><br>
Major changes done to the document are:<br>
1. Akshar formation rules have been simplified and
inapplicable cases have been removed e.g. Avagraha and
Digits<br>
2. Anusvara and Chandrabindu have been made separate
categories as discussed in the Kathmandu F2F meet. <br>
3. Santhali nukta requirements have been incorporated
and the WLE section has been modified accordingly. <br>
4. List of languages has been modified as per the EGIDS
scale 1 to 4<br>
5. Guiding principles have been added for code-point
selection<br>
6. Code-points as required by Sindhi and Kashmiri have
been added<br>
