@konah619: Rajendra Dadabi had 900 students in the middle of class when the phone rang. A father from the village of Betrawati, upstream, warned him that the water was rising incredibly fast. Dadabi, the 47-year-old principal and English teacher at Tribhuvan Trishuli Secondary School, in the Trishuli Valley, did not wait for confirmation or protocol: he led all the students to higher ground on foot, while the river began swallowing the road they had just left behind. 🗣️ "I saw a bus crossing the bridge, but I couldn't reach it. The water had already reached the school grounds. It was rising incredibly fast. The children were scared, but fear gave them the energy to run uphill. What else could I do?"
