One more reform

I forgot to mention the voiced 'wa' in Marathi, again unique among Indian languages. Currently व does double duty, for both the unvoiced 'va' as in विश्वास, and the voiced 'wa', as in वाघ. Right now the two are differentiated by context alone. I suggest the corresponding Modi character to become the voiced 'wa'. It can be added after व.
