However, the constant rain and flood-like situation overfilled the Champavati river and cut off transport facilities. The situation was so threatening that no boats were available to carry her to the other side of the river. So the woman decided to swim and cross the river without any option. Because she did not learn how to swim, her brother and another family member carried her on their shoulders and helped her transit the river.
Twitter user KP Ashish shared this video on the micro-blogging site with the details about the incident in the caption. In the video, the girl can be seen crossing the overflowing Champavati river with the help of two of her relative. Risking her life, Kalavathi crossed the flooded river so that she could appear in the exam, which was scheduled on Saturday. This incident took place in the Gajapathinagaram Mandal of Vizianagaram district.
