U+110C1 "𑃁" Kaithi Double Danda is a punctuation mark used in the Kaithi script, which was historically employed for writing languages such as Hindi, Urdu, Bhojpuri, and Magahi in northern India. This character resembles two vertical strokes and functions as a double danda, which serves to mark the end of a verse, stanza, or major textual unit in Kaithi manuscripts, analogous to the use of the double danda in other Brahmi-derived scripts like Devanagari. Its inclusion in the Unicode standard ensures proper digital representation and processing of Kaithi texts, preserving the script's traditional punctuation for modern electronic documentation and typography.
