I live in Bulgaria. The official script here is Cyrillic. Although all OSs support Cyrillic, the vast majority of users use the so called 'shlyokavitsa' - using ASCII to write in Bulgarian, which (as expected) is not very suitable for the purpose. The result is extremely low quality (and hard to read) text. And yet, this is probably 90% of the talk in chats, facebook and other venues where 'ordinary' people interact. I have friends who are Arabs and they do the same (though, they at least have a good excuse as computers around here don't have Arabic keys). I have no reasons to believe that the situation in India is any different. Some countries go even further, and make Latin their second official script. This is the situation in Serbia at the moment (Cyrillic and Latin).
