Kirat Rai is a writing system used to represent the Bantawa language, primarily spoken in the Sikkim state of India. It's a left-to-right abugida, which means that each consonant has an inherent vowel, typically /a/. The script is based on the Sumhung Lipi, developed in the 1920s. Kirat Rai is composed of 31 primary characters, including vowels, consonants, a virama to cancel the inherent vowel, and a vowel carrier. Its design is relatively simple and straightforward compared to other Brahmic scripts. While the Devanagari script is also used to write Bantawa, Kirat Rai has gained popularity in recent years as a way to preserve the language and culture of the Bantawa people.
