Hi everyone,
I am facing an issue with a KoBoCollect form using external CSV with cascading selects and multilingual support (English, Hindi, Tamil). Instead of using mulitple externals csvs for multiple levels, i am using single csv for all levels as suggested in the community (@stephanealoo )
It was working for fine untill english only, english and tamil. but when I added a hindi then it started giving me error. As soon as i select the state, this errors pops up.

]. You will probably need to go thru your entire form and convert these to English/latin alphabet chars.
