Or maybe my guess below will be lucky. You probably want this:
(defun sort-by-codepoint (c1 c2)
(< (string-to-char c1) (string-to-char c2)))
(let ((core-consonants '("க" "ங" "ச" "ஞ" "ட" "ண" "த"
"ந" "ப" "ம" "ய" "ர" "ல"
"வ" "ழ" "ள" "ற" "ன")))
(sort core-consonants 'sort-by-codepoint))
=> ("க" "ங" "ச" "ஞ" "ட" "ண" "த" "ந" "ன" "ப" "ம" "ய" "ர" "ற" "ல" "ள" "ழ" "வ")
(To understand why, read the doc string of 'sort' carefully, where it
explains what is expected from PREDICATE.)
