CC'ing a couple of folks who can check this out.
The fonts in question have had unclear origins particularly related to
the glyphs. This issue has been out there for a while without a very
clear statement from the developers.
Sayamindu (cc: ed) has some more knowledge about the lack of clarity of
these set of fonts.
On a personal note, I would not like to see them hosted at Fedora
Infrastructure or included as part of anything related to bn_IN (which
is maintained by Runa) till there is clarity on the issue.
