Hi,
Google OCR for Devnagari (Languages like Hindi, Marathi etc) is used by
many. Accuracy is about 85-90% which is pretty good.
There is a paid OCR software available that gives better results. Can share
the name if you are interested.
I doubt if there is in-wikisource support for OCR in Indic languages.
If you can specify a bit more on your requirements, people can suggest a
possible solution.
Regards

Hello,
Can anyone here refer me to someone who is active in making Hindi-language
contributions to Wikisource? I wish to meet someone with experience in that
language and project. Otherwise, can anyone suggest to me which Indic
languages in Wikisource seem to be most active?
Is anyone able to make a recommendation for any OCR software for
converting scanned Hindi language documents to digital text? Does anyone
know anything about in-Wikisource support for OCR in Hindi language? Does
it exist? Is there documentation?
Thanks for anything anyone can share.
yours,
