Brolikva is a Latin-script based orthographthy for Brahui developed by the University of Balochistan. The Brahui Perso-Arabic script is still the most widely used, but right now Brahui labels are a mix of left to right and right to left text, which can cause unnecessary confusion. This could be brh-latn, since brh is more commonly used for Perso-Arabic script.

I have added items for a number of scholalry works written in Brahui, such as https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q113302350
It should be noted that the Latin script is very rarely used for Brahui and was contrived in 2008 at the same university that continues to publish papers in the Arabic script like the one above. However, the translator for Brahui on TranslateWiki is insistent that Brahui should only be written in the Latin script and as such that code has been set to left to right and used for a mix of scripts.
