Hi Sundar

We have indeed posted on Tamil Wikipedia already, my colleagues were having
issues with the fonts on Tamil wikipedia so the exact location might not be
apparent, I did want to post it on the Embassy Page for localization which I
would appreciate any help with if anyone is still willing to translate it
for us.

My Colleague Deniz had already posted two updates at these locations:

Thanks Salmaan. I was looking at recent posts.

the expression of thought, is a truth generally admitted."

[Bishakha Datta]

Please do be in touch directly with Prof Vijay Chitnis (
simplystrate...@gmail.com) if anyone would like to follow up on this. He is
not a member of this list.

Prof Chitnis: as discussed, I am forwarding this to the India list. Will
also send separately to the Marathi wikipedia list and connect you with some
Marathi editors.

Cheers
Bishakha
