                 Tribhuwan Uniyal (Sanguda, Aswalsyun, Pauri Garhwal, 30/6/1967) is famous satirical columnist and lyrist of Garhwali language. His audio disc ‘Masteni’ is very famous audio disc.  

                 Tribhuwan Uniyal wrote four dramas (a documentary is there of four Garhwali plays, 2007). All his plays are humorous, hilarious and satirical. All the plays/dramas by Uniyal deal with contemporary subject of rural Garhwal.

    ‘Dotiyal Pradhan Ji’ is satirical, humorous and hilarious Garhwali drama/play by Tribhuwan Uniyal Ji. The subject of drama/play deals with the problem of migration by Garhwalis and encroachment by Nepalis in rural Garhwal. A son of migrated Garhwali comes to his village for a certificate from Pradhan (village council chief). The second generation migrated Garhwali is shocked that somebody has occupied his ancestral house.  The second generation migrated Garhwali is furious about a Nepali occupying his own house without his permission. The second generation migrated Garhwali threatens the Nepali that he will complain to the Gram Pradhan (village council chief). It is more than a shock for second generation migrated Garhwali by knowing that Nepali (Dotiyal) is the Gram Pradhan of village.

     The spoofy, comical and uproarious playwright (drama writer) Uniyal took the subject of future that tomorrow this land (rural Garhwal) will be owned by other communities than Garhwalis. The dram writer uses proper uses of conflicts of interest in the sardonic, witty and entertaining drama/play. The dialogues are satirical, humorous and hilarious. The dialogues provide speed to the drama/play. The subject is definitely contemporary. Uniyal took every care in characterizations of characters of ironic, comical and amusing play/drama of existing subject.
