The manuscripts, scattered at different locations in states, are written on diverse materials such as paper, palm leaf, birch bark, and cloth, and span multiple languages, including Sanskrit, Tamil, Telugu, Arabic, Persian, Bengali, and Malayalam. The exercise will take at least three years to complete. Once digitised, the manuscripts will be made accessible to the public through an online portal. All the records will be made accessible through a dedicated portal. According to the officials, the number of pages to be processed is estimated as one manuscript contains approximately 100 pages.
