Abstract
Probability of occurrence of all symbols of Devnagari script in Hindi is computed and the entrony and redundancy of Hindi language is reported. It is found that Hindi is less redundant and more efficient than English The present Devnagari script because of its phonetic nature and a large number of symbols (57) is not very efficient from the view point of telegraphic transmission, hence a modified script having only 42 symbols is hereby proposed and it is hoped that this modified script will be suitable for use by all major Indian languages.
