+
+            As the yang file is formatted as in a hierarchy structure, the dictionary is going to be 
+            of recursive structure.
+
+            Now, remember that inside a statement there could be one to many mapping of the substatements.
+            Now the way to convert it to dictionary is to add some numbering to the keywords.
+
+            For example a leaf can contain multiple 'must' substatements. now the way it is saved in the leaf subdict is
+            {
+                'must0' : 'count(.) > 5'
+                'must1' : 'sum(.) <= 10'

+                    'must' : 2
+                }
+            }
+
+            Now when we are manuevering we must have the count of the number of keywords present. This count is present in the same dictionary with the
+            key name as 'tally'. This is a dictionary which contains the number of the keyword present in this statement.
+
+            The way to manuevere the current statement is to go through the tally dict, and for all keywords present in it, 
+            all those keywords will be there with the index number suffixed to it.
