Teacher treks 5km daily through forest to teach two sisters
A teacher in Kolhapur, Maharashtra, treks five kilometers each way through a dense forest to teach two sisters. The journey involves navigating through areas with reported dangers from leopards, bears, and wild dogs. The school he attends serves only these two students in a hamlet lacking electricity. The teacher has reportedly been making this trek for 13 years to ensure the girls' education.
