           A Garhwali story    ‘Huntyari ka Naunyal’ by Rashmi Barthwal is about the characteristics of students studying in rural Garhwal.  Rashmi believes that the future of students upon their childhood conditioning rather than conditioning at later stage of life.

              Rashmi talks about the condition of rural Garhwal when there was less awareness about education in Garhwal and when new school opens the students are not conditioned to study in group in school. Rashmi describes students and their way of life style. A boy is dirty and never takes bath. A student steals money from his father pocket due to his father’s ignorance and bad habit of alcohol consumption. Rashmi describes various student characters and shows surprise.

               The story is simple and is in reporting form rather than modern tales narration method. Language of story is purely of Ganga Salan area and Rashmi writes words as they are said in Ganga Salan region.  The story is satire on parents and society not taking proper care about their children
