Principal Rajendra Dawadi successfully evacuated 900 students from a school in the Trishuli Valley of Nepal after receiving urgent warnings of incoming floodwaters. The evacuation occurred as the disaster caused widespread destruction, tearing apart homes, bridges, and entire villages in the region.

The incident took place while Dawadi was in his classroom, prompted by an initial warning from the school's accountant. Subsequent reports indicate that additional warnings were received by staff via telephone as the floodwaters rapidly advanced through the valley.
