Answered by Chito · asked 9 times

In an incredible survival story from Betrawati following severe flooding, 65-year-old Chandika Shrestha was rescued alive after spending 10 to 11 days trapped inside her buried four-story house. Rescuers were alerted when they heard cries for help emerging from inside the buried walls of the structure. Her survival came as a complete shock to her family, who had presumed her dead and had already performed her funeral rites. Following the rescue, she was airlifted to Kathmandu for medical treatment.
