Alphabet table in Dogra script

The Dogri script is a writing system originally used for writing the Dogri language in Jammu and Kashmir in the northern part of the Indian subcontinent.

History

The revival of the Dogra Akkhar script was supported by the order of Maharaja Ranbir Singh of Jammu and Kashmir. It is a modified version of the old Dogra Akkhar script, which in turn was a Jammu variant of the Takri script.
