Indian languages not suppoted in Ubuntu 16.04?
Use the Language Support in System Settings:
Click on the 'Install/Remove Languages' button:
Click the checkbox next to the language of your choice and click 'Apply'.
You can install related fonts. Like in your case you would need Indian fonts. From terminal:
sudo apt-get install fonts-indic
(Disclaimer: I'm not familiar with these languages)
Try system settings > language support, and check if the languages you need is fully installed. Sometimes some language packages may not be installed.
If that does not work, try to install fonts-knda
for Kannada language and fonts-telu
and see if that fix it. You can install from Synaptic or use this terminal command:
sudo apt install fonts-knda fonts-telu
