Hello, and welcome to the forum!
To start, you will want to look at and translate the Getting Started pages on the website, which are here.
You may also find it helpful to show users how to change their common names and interface language. I’ll add screenshots for that in a moment.

You can change common names to India and language to Hindi.

A larger task than a guide or tutorial, both the website and apps can be translated to any language, more details on the Help Us Translate page. It looks like someone did make a start on Hindi but there has not been much progress.

I did, also, venture there - that certainly will take some effort - will try and get a bunch of us involved in it.

Right now making doing with a copy / paste job - will try and re-create them if not easily accessible. I only found the bird icon (as an svg)

If you dig through the source code you can probably find links to the various assets, including icons and logos. https://github.com/inaturalist/inaturalist

Hello
Thank you for all the advice, links.
Attached is the first hindi output - not perfect but I think workable for the agenda in hand. I copied the form and design of the inaturalist brochure and changed some of the text elements. To save time and to not have any issues with image licensing I just used mine (most if not all of those are on inaturalist already)
I will be translating (and making a poster) from the Getting Started pages
I will also use the pocket size post cards as kindly shared by @jdjohnson

Based on the links and other suggestions provided here I have created a set of hindi “how to’s”
The have used the design of what was provided and I have had to change the text a bit (some explanations in some places)
they have not been reviewed by anyone else - so any mistakes are mine. However i think for the purpose od starting to introduce it I hope they work.
The originals ar ein SVG (Vector format) and if any would like them please ping me will be happy to share.
I copy pasted images from some of the links given hence their resolution is not great.
Thank you all for advising and helping
Am attaching what was produced (in 2 more mails after this)

Apologies for the many mails - but was not sure if i should attach all the images in one mail or have them in separate mails (I chose the latter)
