I am currently President of Tribhuvan University Teachers&#8217; Association, Dhankuta Multiple Campus Unit Committee (2019-2022). Before teaching at Tribhuvan University, I worked as a research assistant on the Chintang Puma Documentation Project (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.cpdp.uzh.ch\/\">CPDP<\/a>), which was funded  from 2004 to 2009 by the Volkswagen Foundation in its <a href=\"http:\/\/dobes.mpi.nl\/\">DoBeS programme<\/a>. After that project, my interest began in endangered languages documentation, and I started to document and analyse endangered languages of Nepal. I have involved in documentation of five endangered Kiranti languages of Nepal so far, namely <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Chintang_language\">Chhintang<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Chulung_language\">Chhulung<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Belhare_language\">Belhare<\/a>, the Mugali variety of <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Yakkha_language\">Yakkha<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Wambule_language\">Wambule<\/a>. On the basis of this documentation and analysis, I have published articles in national and international journals, and in 2018 I published a book entitled <em>Chhintang Mundum Text: Interpretation and Translation into English<\/em> with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lap-publishing.com\/catalog\/details\/store\/us\/book\/978-613-9-91156-1\/chhintang-mundum-text:-interpretation-and-translation-into-english?search=ichchha\">Lambert Academic Publishing<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My main interests are endangered languages documentation, oral literature, multilingualism, and critical pedagogy. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This post introduces another member of the FEL Executive Committee.
