            • Description : Bantawa is polysynthetic language of the Kirati family of Sino-Tibetan and is spoken by most of the Rais in eastern Nepal. There are nearly 30 different languages spoken by the Rai community. Bantawa is a language of majority among the Rais and in many cases it serves as the lingua franca. Historically it seems the pattern of migration takes place from the west to the east of Nepal and most of the Rais give up their languages and take up Bantawa as they move to the east. Therefore it is widely spoken in the Bhojpur, Dhankutta, Panchthar and Ilam districts of eastern Nepal. It is also spoken in the west Bengal and Sikkim provinces of India and Bhutan. It has no script of its own and has no written tradition. Presently the government of Nepal has introduced Bantawa in the primary schools and text books are available now up to grade four. Radio Nepal also has its program of daily news broadcasting in Bantawa. The government of Sikkim has also introduced this language in the primary schools recently and they have invented a kind of script of their own, but in the case of Nepal, Bantawa is written in Devanagari with some extra diacritics. There is no reliable source to quote the number of speakers but it can be estimated that there are some one houndred thousand speakers in Nepal and approximately 50 thousand in India and Bhutan.
