Only Current Browser Supporting Both Languages

Opera Software today announced the availability of its browser in both Hindi and Punjabi. The browser is available for Windows and Linux. It can be downloaded from Opera's download page.

"The Web must become more accessible to people wherever they live and whatever language they speak," said Jon S. von Tetzchner, CEO, Opera Software. "Browser companies bear responsibility for allowing all people to access this amazing resource. Barriers such as language make the Internet less of a global resource than it could be. Opera is taking this step towards removing those barriers."

Worldwide, more than 700 million people speak Hindi and more than 100 million speak Punjabi. Opera is the only browser company whose latest version is available in both languages, providing substantial speed, usability and security upgrades.
