    I'm what the encoded representation of the ya-phalaa in Oriya script is
    supposed to be. I'm referring to the typeform

     

     

     

    In Unicode, this is considered a presentation form of ya, but the
    problem is that there are two ya characters: U+0B2F ORIYA LETTER YA

     

     

     

    and U+0B5F ORIYA LETTER YYA

     

     

     

    So, my question is which of these is the character underlying the
    ya-phalaa: the first or the second? Or would it be the first for some
    words, and the second for other words?

     

    I suppose the answer to this can be found in ISCII - does anybody know
    what ISCII did in this regard?
