Idea development was by computational linguist Amar Fayaz Buriro, who presented the concept of Bhittaipedia, where all translations of Shah Jo Risalo made by different authors and research papers including books may be publish on one Website as like Encyclopedia. Scientific data of animals, birds, places and human characters which were sung by Shah Abdul Latif Bhittai in his poetry will be provided in the research portal. Then Abdul Majid Bhurgri Institute of Language Engineering started work on this project.[2][3]
