BBC uses these either of these fonts ... "font-family :mangal,raghu8"
Webdunia uses it's own font... so you'll have to download it.

It depends on the guy that developed the site ... if they were considerate
enough they'd have put multiple options for fonts instead of forcing you to
use theirs.

BBC allows you to use other fonts too.. but webdunia doesn't ! (BBC showed up
in hindi for me... I never installed their font before.. but all the matras
were fscked up ... shifted down one letter for some reason!)
