Description:The participants were requested by the collector (Netra) to talk about the current issues of Chintang. All the speakers of this session are primary level school teachers. And they are very good speakers of Chintang. The recording took place during the day time at a home in Chintang. The sound qualitiy of this session is good.
The speakers compare the recent chintang with the old one. They discuss the problems of past days and also talk about the recent developments.
The whole talk is in the Chintang language. However, there are very few lexical items borrowed from Nepali as well.
Surya, Lokendra and Udhav are the speakers of this session. Netra recorded it.
