As a teenager, Sunita Dangol was curious about everything around her. Out of that curiosity, in 2011, she applied for a beauty pageant named Miss Newa and won the title. Soon, she tried her hand at coaching children preparing for Little Miss Newa beauty pageant. She also ran radio and TV shows.
This curiosity into different things led her to learn Nepal Bhasa lipi (script) in 2014. Since then, she is fixed into it as she also started teaching the script.
As the government imposed the lockdown to contain the coronavirus spread in March this year, Dangol and her colleagues at Callijatra, an informal group working to promote and preserve the language, faced a roadblock in their effort to spread the knowledge.
