*Regarding The Project*

Mozhi (mozhi.org) is a non-profit & non-commercial educational venture
unlike Google or Yahoo. The project intends to create a good atmosphere to
search in Indian languages . Many netizans have expressed there troubles to
search newspapers, magazines, blogs in Indian languages.

Our Motive

 To support all users who are using Indian languages by providing search
facility. To assist researchers / scholars to search effectively in Indian
languages. *We also intend to add non copy righted literature works in our
server to enable researchers to search these.*

Though the project concentrates on South Indian languages, the coding can
support other Indian languages. Currently we support *Tamil, Kannada, Teugu,
Malayalam (beta), Hindi, Sanskrit, Bengali, Punjabi and Oriya.***

Applications:

*Direct*

1. For searching newspapers, magazines in Indian languages

2. Searching websites, blogs etc

3.  For searching wikipedia (Indian language editions)

*Indirect*

1. For researches / scholars in Indian languages*

2. Searching ancient manuscripts in Indian language*

*for both these  conversion of text to soft format is required.
