Welcome

Utkarsh is a mission to bring the power of computers to the Gujarati speaking populace.

As computers become part of everyday life, the biggest bottleneck to their widespread use is the unavailability of Indian language software. The benefits of the information technology will reach an average user only when the computing interface is in local language.

Utkarsh enables Gujarati users to use computers in their own language. Utkarsh will aid in furthering the growth of computers among the non-English speaking Gujarati people thereby reducing the Digital Divide. Utkarsh also intends to bring the Gujarati culture into the digital realm and ensure that Gujarati language does not face the danger of extinction.
