Abstract: In Natural Language Processing one of the challenges is how to determine which entity is referred in the discourse and how they correlate to each other? Anaphora resolution is one of the most important area in Natural Language Processing. In this paper, we present rule based approach to identify different types of anaphora and its antecedents for Hindi. We use Hidden Markov Model to POS tag the dataset and cases are used for the identification of preferred noun. At last, apply Centering algorithm for identification of pronoun and its referents. We have tested the system with 500 segments to resolve the anaphora
