IndicWav2Vec Pretrained Base
This is the base pretrained IndicWav2Vec checkpoint, published separately from the language-specific recognizers.
Pretraining precedes language-specific recognition

Add a task head and downstream training
Practical guidance. Use this checkpoint as an acoustic representation starting point. It is not a ready-made transcript endpoint; recognition requires the downstream model and decoding setup.
