The Indian government recognizes 22 languages, not 2. The government has a department dedicated to their support: http://tdil.mit.gov.in Why isn't someone asking that department WTF has it been doing?

Added later: and there's also CDAC http://cdac.in/index.aspx?id=mlingual which has been at it since 1988.



I don't purport to know what the Technology Development for Indian Languages Departments is doing with its time, but perhaps its inefficacy is a signal that speakers of such languages should not need to depend on them for techno-linguistic representation.
