Dandas are wrapped alone to the beginning of a line

[r12a]

Bengali uses Devanagari phrase separator । U+0964 DEVANAGARI DANDA (called DanRi in Bengali) to represent the end of the sentence. Bengali also uses U+0965 DEVANAGARI DOUBLE DANDA (called DuiDanRi in Bengali) and as per the Unicode recommendation, both have to come from Devanagari block of Unicode. Devanagari phrase separator । U+0964 DEVANAGARI DANDA or ॥ U+0965 DEVANAGARI DOUBLE DANDA are encoded in the DEVANAGARI block with the intent that they should be used as common punctuation for all the major scripts of India including Bengali.

The properties of Danda and Double Danda should be the same as the properties of FullStop or other punctuation marks, and a new line should not begin with Danda and Double Danda.

I'm not sure there's an issue here, so i will close it until further information arrives.

The Bengali Layout Requirements doc talks about the possibility of a space appearing before the danda, to balance the white space – in which case, the danda shouldn't wrap alone to the next line. However, all the style guides i have seen so far indicate that there should be no intervening space before the danda.
