Bengali Braille is used for the Bengali and Assamese languages. According to UNESCO (2013),[1] there are slight different braille conventions for Bengali language in Bangladesh and India, this article compares Bengali Braille in the two countries. As Assamese language also shares almost a common script with Bengali language, the Bengali Braille is also used for the Assamese language.
