The Bhilala Script is a writing system used primarily by the Bhil community in India. It is an abugida, meaning each character represents a consonant with an inherent vowel sound that can be modified with diacritics. The script is mainly used for writing the Bhil languages, which are part of the larger Indo-Aryan language family. Developed in the 20th century, the Bhilala Script was created to promote literacy among the Bhil people. It draws inspiration from the Devanagari script but has unique features that cater to the phonetic needs of the Bhil languages. The script plays a crucial role in preserving the cultural identity and heritage of the Bhil community.
