Nepal is a multilingual country consisting of 123 languages as reported by the census 2011 (CBS, 2012). Linguistically, all languages are equal. However, there are ideological differences among scholars and stakeholders of language. Critical theorists see language as a tool of dominating the minorities whereas utilitarians see language as a path from local to global world. From ethnic perspective, language is an identity and for politicians and activists, it is a means to activate people and a matter of ideology. For pedagogues, language of instruction has always been a dilemma and a sensitive issue. In this context, this review paper analyses the existing language policy of using mother tongue based multilingual education in Nepal, is just the continuation of assimilationist ideology in disguise and proposes language co-existence approach with a choice in language of instruction in policy and practice as a solution to maintain linguistic identity of ethnic groups. Furthermore, translanguaging can be used as a pedagogical solution in multilingual classrooms.

भाषा विचार विनिमयको शसक्त माध्यम हो । भाषाको माध्यमबाट सबै व्यक्तिहरुहरू एकआपसमा जोडिएका हुन्छन् । भाषाले सामाजिक मूल्य मान्यताका साथै सामाजिक संस्कारलाई बोकेको हुन्छ । भाषा आयोगको वार्षिक प्रतिवेदन (२०७७) अनुसार नेपालमा हाल १३१ ओटा भाषाहरू बोलिन्छन् । यी भाषाहरू मध्ये दार्चुलेली भाषा दार्चुला जिल्ला र सुदूरपश्चिम प्रदेशको भू–भागका साथै काठमाडौँसम्म प्रयोग व्यबहारमा आउने जनसम्पर्कको भाषा हो । प्रस्तुत लेखको उद्देश्य दार्चुलेली भाषाका सामाजिक भेदहरूको उल्लेख गर्नु रहेको छ । माथिको उद्देश्य पूरा गर्नका लागि गुणात्मक अनुसन्धान विधि अन्तर्गत अवस्था अध्ययन ढाँचाको प्रयोग गरी सामाजिक भाषिक भेदको सिद्धान्त अनुसार दार्चुलेली भाषाको सामाजिक भाषिक भेद पहिचान गरी नेपाली भाषामा अर्थ प्रस्तुत गरिएको छ । यस लेखका लागि दार्चुलेली मातृभाषी व्यक्तिहरुबाट प्राथमिक सामग्री सङ्कलनगरी सामाजिक तथा भाषाविज्ञानका सैद्धान्तिक पुस्तकहरू, जर्नल, प्रतिवेदनलाई द्वितीयक स्रोतका रूपमा उपयोग गरिएको छ । उल्लिखित सन्दर्भ अनुसार यस अध्ययनमा समाजका विभिन्न वर्ग, जात, जाति, व्यवसाय, लिङ्ग, शिक्षा, बसोबासको स्थिति आदिका आधारमा सामाजिक भाषिक भेद रहेको पाइन्छ । दार्चुलेली भाषाको वर्गीय भेदमा ठुला मानिएका जातिले काका, इजा, दाइ, चेली भनी प्रयोग गरेको पाइन्छ भने तल्लो मानिएका जातिले क्रमशः का, ज्या, दादा, परघरी भनेर भाषिक व्यबहार गरेको पाइन्छ । दार्चुलेली भाषामा तल्लो र माथिल्लो नाताबिचको सम्बन्धगत भाषिक व्यवहारमा सानाले ओ दा, ओ दी र ठुलाले सानालाई ए बुना, ए बुनी भनेर सम्बोधन गरेको पाइन्छ । दार्चुलेली भाषामा सामाजिक भाषिक भेद रहेको पाइन्छ । यस लेखबाट सामाजिक भाषिक विषयमा अनुसन्धान गर्ने अनुसन्धाता, विद्यार्थी, शिक्षक, स्थानीय पाठ्यक्रम निर्माता आदि लाभान्वित हुने आशा गरिएको छ । {Language is a powerful medium of communication.

This article aims to explore and interpret Buddha’s sayings in the Dhammapada from the perspective of defamiliarisation theorised by Shklovsky and sublimity postulated by Longinus. The Dhammapada is an assemblage of Buddha’s precepts in verses. In this book, Buddha’s words ignite the power and transport the readers in the realm of ecstasy. It is because of the perfect use of sublime and defamiliarisation. Every verse divulges the eternal truth in simple, but powerful words because it synthesises the sources of the sublime categorised by Longinus namely divine inspiration, vehement passion, use of rhetorical tropes, noble diction, and elevated composition. So, Buddha’s words possess power, and have been captivating the readers throughout the ages. Likewise, Buddha’s sayings in the Dhammapada have attained a pinnacle when they irradiate the eternal truth with the use of familiar words in an unfamiliar way. Even the simple words crystallise the genuine truth. In this sense, they use the dynamics of defamiliarisation projected by Shklovsky. In this way, the Dhammapada enthralls humanity endlessly because it yokes defamiliarisation with sublimity. This article implements the exploratory method of the qualitative approach to research to achieve its objectives. Thus, this study introduces a new dimension, revisiting the great heritage of Eastern philosophy from the standpoint of western literary theories.

The repeated episodes of global pandemic created by COVID-19 has lead several universities and institutes switching their mode of education from traditional face-to-face to online mode using different platforms such as Zoom, Google Meet, etc. to mitigate the impact on learning. Nursing education system has been affected such as student’s learning, gap in admissions and delay in graduation which could in turn lead to nursing shortage in near future. The consequences, challenges and barriers faced by students must be explored and addressed so as to improve the quality of online system of nursing education in order to yield smooth production of nursing graduates. This narrative inquiry explores the stories of two nursing student’ experiences who were adapting online mode of education during COVID-19 pandemic. The findings of the study explored as feeling of uncertainty, COVID-19 prompted new learning, modes of teaching and learning and barriers to online learning such as technological competencies, lack of interaction, the Internet issues. The study highlighted that there is a need of social interactions between students and teachers and among students for an active learning process. In addition, practical courses remain the major concern in nursing and it can lead to anxiety and delay graduation among nursing students. So, concerned authority must be alerted for adopting alternative mode of clinical education as well.

समकालीन नेपाली कथामा नारीवादी चेतना मुखरित भएको पाइन्छ । नारीवादी चेतनाले नारीको अस्तित्व, पहिचान,समानता र स्वतन्त्रताको पक्षमा वकालत गर्दछ । समकालीन नेपाली कथामा पनि नारीहरूका लैङ्गिक असमानताप्रतिकोचेतनालाई मूख्य रूपमा उजागर गरिएको छ । यस्तै नारीहरू लिङ्गकै आधारमा दमनमा परेको अवस्थाको विद्रोहलाईसमकालीन कथाहरूले विषयवस्तु बनाएका छन् । राजनीतिक, शैक्षिक, पेसागत, आर्थिक, सामाजिक तथा सांस्कृतिक एवम्धार्मिक क्षेत्रमा समेत नारीहरूले सहनु परेको विभेद र त्यसबाट उनीहरूमा जागृत चेतनासम्बन्धी विषय कथाभित्र समाहितछन् । समकालीन कथामा नारीलाई पुरुषसरह अधिकार दिनुपर्ने कुरामा जोड दिनुका साथै नारी समस्यालाई समाधान गर्नसक्नु देश विकासको गतिमा लम्कनु हो भन्ने सन्देश समेत प्रसारित गरिएको छ । वि.सं. २०४६ सालपछि लेखिएका वासमकालीन नेपाली कथाले पितृसत्ताकै कारणले नारीहरू दमनमा परेका हुनाले त्यसप्रति सचेत भएर नारी तथा पुरुषलेकदम चाल्नुपर्ने विषयलाई प्राथमिकताका साथ प्रस्तुत गरेको पाइन्छ । पुरुषलाई जीवनबाटै हटाउने भन्दा पनि हातेमालोगर्दै एकअर्काको अस्तित्वलाई सकार्दै अघि बढ्नुपर्ने विचारमा जोड दिइएको हुनाले समकालीन नेपाली कथामा उदारनारीवादी प्रवृत्ति प्रस्तुत भएको पाइन्छ । {Feminist consciousness is found in contemporary Nepali fiction. Feminist consciousness advocates for women's existence, identity, equality and freedom. Even in contemporary Nepali fiction, the awareness of women towards gender inequality has been highlighted. Contemporary stories have made the revolt against the oppression of such women on the basis of gender the subject. The story covers the issues that women have to endure in the political, educational, professional, economic, social, cultural and religious spheres and the issues that have awakened in them. In the contemporary story, the message has been spread that women should be given the same rights as men and that the solution to the women's problem is to accelerate the pace of development of the country.

Feminist consciousness advocates for women's existence, identity, equality and freedom. Even in contemporary Nepali fiction, the awareness of women towards gender inequality has been highlighted. Contemporary stories have made the revolt against the oppression of such women on the basis of gender the subject. The story covers the issues that women have to endure in the political, educational, professional, economic, social, cultural and religious spheres and the issues that have awakened in them. In the contemporary story, the message has been spread that women should be given the same rights as men and that the solution to the women's problem is to accelerate the pace of development of the country.

This article explored how disability management practice is insighted by the head teachers of schools to address the diverse need of pupils in schools. The dimension of leadership practice on disability management is creating energy within school surrounding, securing learning environment in inclusive setting, extending the vision, enhancing capacity of teaching and non-teaching staff, conflict management, minimising the crisis and seeking improvement. This study employed the narrative inquiry design of qualitative method by using in-depth interview as a research tool to collect data. The sample was drawn purposively that comprised five head teachers of community secondary schools located in Kathmandu Valley. The result showed that head teachers emphasised specifically in infrastructural development, developing awareness about disabilities, creating inclusive atmosphere within organisation, need to focus on professional development along with inclusive indicators. Effective diversity management strategies are the major leading practices adopted by head teachers for the disability management. Its implication is that the leadership practice must be adapted within community schools to create quality and effective management for disability.

The Tharus have their own sort of traditional governance system for dealing with their conflicts in each village throughout the western Tarai part in twenty two districts of Nepal. This paper attempted to answer how the perspectives and experiences of Tharu people provide an insight into the perception of indigeneity and modernity in the context of Tharu Barghar/Bhaalamansa (Village Chief) system in western Nepal, and what type of confrontation between indigeneity and modernity in Barghar system of the Tharus are practised. I employed interpretivism as a research paradigm and critical ethnography as a research design which includes focus group discussion and interview with Barghars and social elites of Kailali district of Far western Province, Nepal. Human Needs theory, Marxist theory, Subaltern theory, Modern theory and Hybridity theories were reviewed and examined in this study to analyse the Barghar System. The political influence in the customary and traditional Barghar system has caused an imposition that has modified the system in the essence and greed of political leaders. The ethno-hybridisation seen in the existing Barghar system at present is the byproduct of globalisation and political sensibility which has indirectly given the sense of pillage of the system. The findings support policy making in the local as well as federal government level and the policy on local curriculum designers at school level. The Barghars and the social elites were empowered regarding the cultural identity in the continuation of the system in future.

This study explored the Vedic and Ethno-ecological knowledge embedded within cultural practitioners, teachers and students. To obtain the objective of this explorative and decolonising study, I purposively selected two Ethno practitioners, two science teachers and four students. About 55 minutes focus group discussion was carried out with selected students and near about one-hour interview was carried out with Ethno practitioners and teachers. The collected information was transcribed and then translated into English and main themes were identified using the Rhizomatic approach by connecting the nodal point to identify main themes. Then each theme was analysed using the abductive approach to justify the participants' arguments. The finding indicates that Vedic and socio-cultural practice consisted of world peace and sustainable development ideas. Cultural students learned this knowledge by seeing their elders' day-to-day practice. Teachers are also seen aware of the effect of modernisation but show reluctance to implement it in school science teaching. Local as well as the central government could be serious to implement Vedic and Ethnocultural knowledge to preserve the earth as well as the whole universe. The Vedic and Ethno knowledge is seen fully supported for the decolonising western-based pedagogical practices.
