Thanks for sharing this news, Rasberry. As they have mentioned that
1,000 books in Bengali will be released, that means it may be new set
of book. Because they released so many books here of their Endanger
archive project already.

We are already using at our Bengali wikisource
(
https://bn.wikisource.org/) project for proofreading.
Partnership with School of Cultural Texts and Records (SCTR) of
Jadavpur University can be access here

But the National Library of India haven't released their digital
collection till now.
