Aligned parallel corpus plays a vital role for research in various automatic NLP tasks. A constantly increasing resource for collecting parallel text is the World Wide Web. This paper discusses a novel approach for collecting parallel text for language pair Punjabi-Hindi. We use Machine Translation and DOM for finding parallel text from internet. The collected text is of heterogeneous nature and is aligned at word level with high precision. The approach discussed in this paper guarantees high quality parallel data in short time span.
