The SIE in Prayagraj city has designed a first-of-its-kind dialects dictionary in four volumes, containing 76,000 words in four region-specific languages including Bhojpuri, Awadhi, Braj, and Bundelkhandi.
Based on the new National Education Policy (NEP)-2020, the dictionary comprises a set of four books of around 150 pages each.
The dialect dictionary, currently in the printing stage, will soon hit the shelves after its launch by Uttar Pradesh's State Council of Educational Research and Training (SCERT).
