"Uncovering the Lost Scripts of Kathmandu Valley: The Callijatra Initiative Deep within the Kathmandu Valley, a group of passionate linguists and cultural enthusiasts are working tirelessly to revive a piece of Nepal's rich heritage: the ancient language of Callijatra. This forgotten dialect, once spoken by the valley's indigenous communities, has been slowly disappearing over the years, taking its unique writing systems and traditions with it. The Callijatra group is dedicated to preserving and promoting this lost language, not only to honor the valley's cultural past but also to ensure its continued relevance in modern times. With their efforts, a new chapter is being written in the history of Kathmandu Valley's linguistic diversity, shedding light on a previously overlooked aspect of Nepal's cultural identity."


The group Callijatra preserves and promotes a once-forgotten language and its writing systems across Kathmandu Valley.
