DOGRA SIGN NUKTA is a nonspacing combining mark (zero advance width) from the Supplementary Multilingual Plane.

The bidi class of DOGRA SIGN NUKTA is Nonspacing Mark (Weak). It belongs to the non-spacing marks, which take on the directionality of the characters to which they attach..

The Nonspacing Mark (NSM) bidi class is assigned to diacritical marks that do not occupy their own space but modify the preceding base character. NSMs are neutral in directionality but inherit the directionality of the base character they are attached to. They are essential for the accurate representation of characters with diacritics in bidirectional text.

Nonspacing Mark (Mn) refers to diacritical marks that do not occupy their own space but instead combine with a preceding base character to modify its sound or meaning. Nonspacing marks are essential in many scripts, including Latin, Arabic, and Devanagari, for accurate representation of text.

This character belongs to the Dogra block. The Dogra block contains characters for the Dogra script, historically used in northern India for writing the Dogri language. The script was used in the 19th and early 20th centuries before being replaced by Devanagari. The inclusion of the Dogra script in Unicode supports the preservation of historical documents and texts written in the script..
