  • 4 years ago
Determined children in east India take on a dangerous journey every day to receive an education, as the route to their school crosses over a precariously narrow canal bridge.  

Footage of the student route were captured on January 20 in Sorada block, Ganjam district, Odisha, and shows school-going children, men and women walking one-by-one on the narrow canal crossing. 

According to reports, the village is located on one side of the Padmavati river. So to reach the other side of the river, to come to town, they have to come across that narrow canal.
