A software engineer from Madhya Pradesh, Jagdish Dangi, has entered the Limca Book of Records for developing the first Hindi Internet Browser called "I-Browser ++". He developed the browser in May 2001 as part of his personal project called "Bhasha Setu" after graduating from college. The Limca Book of Records recognized his achievement after receiving a formal entry about it. Dangi also developed a Hindi dictionary and thesaurus called "Shabdakosh" and a global word translator called "Anuvaadak". He is currently working on software to simplify translation between languages. While his work has received praise locally and internationally, Dangi feels the central government has not given it enough importance.

Vidisha, MP, Nov 11 (UNI) A Ganjabsauda town­based software engineer, Jagdish
Dangi, has entered the Limca Book of Records, for developing first Hindi Internet
Browser 'I­Browser + +'.
Mr Dangi told UNI that he had developed the browser in May at his home as a part of
his pet project ''Bhasha Setu'' after completing graduation from Vidisha Engineering
College in 2001.
The Limca Book of Records recognised his achievement after it received a formal entry
in this regard. Mr Dangi received a letter from the Limca Books of Records yesterday.
The software is completely in Hindi with Devanagari as its script.
His project has been lauded nationally as well as internationally.
Born in a rural agricultural family, Mr Dangi said he had also developed 'Shabdakosh' ­­
Dictionary cum thesaurus (English to Hindi and vice­versa) ­­ and 'Anuvaadak' ­­
Global Word Translator (English to Hindi) ­­ as a part of his project.
At present, he was working on 'Saral Editor' software aimed at easier translation from
one language to other.
Mr Dangi said he was a bit disheartened, as the Centre did not attach much importance
to his work. He had discussed about his project with Chief Minister Shivraj Singh
Chouhan and received positive response. His work was also praised by government
officials.
