Add Support for Additional Indian Languages + Voice Interaction in Native Language

My chatbot is used across India where users speak diverse regional languages. Currently, Chatling supports only English, Hindi, and Bengali. However, this limits accessibility for users who prefer languages like Marathi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Kannada, Gujarati, etc.

To better support a Pan-India audience, I request the following enhancements:
Requested Features:

  1. Add More Indian Languages:

    • Support languages like Marathi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam, Gujarati, Punjabi, Assamese, and Urdu.

    • Allow users to choose their preferred language at the start of the chat or detect it automatically.

  2. Voice Input + Native Language Reply:

    • If a user speaks in Marathi (or any supported language), the bot should:

      • Understand the voice in that language.

      • Respond in the same language, either via text or synthesized voice.

    • This would ensure inclusivity for non-English/Hindi speakers, especially for users who are not comfortable with typing.
      Why It’s Important:

      • India is a multilingual country β€” supporting more languages will increase accessibility, user satisfaction, and reach.

      • Many rural and regional users prefer voice-based interaction in their native tongue.

      • It aligns with government initiatives like Digital India and Bhashini.
