Part of Speech tagging in Indian Languages is still an open problem. We still lack a clear approach in implementing a POS tagger for Indian Languages. In this paper we describe our efforts to build a Hidden Markov Model based Part of Speech Tagger. We have used IL POS tag set for the development of this tagger. We have achieved the accuracy of 92%.
