Bhubaneswar, Sept. 24 -- Bhubaneswar: Two Anganwadi workers have become role models for the society by swimming across a dangerous flooded river for the sake of their duties in Malkangiri district.

The Anganwadi workers have been identified as Hemalalta Sisa and Pramila Penel of Raniguda Pachayat under Chitrakonda village in the tribal-dominated district.

During rainy season most of the areas in Raniguda Pachayat are cut off from other parts due to the flooded river. But the hostile condition could not deter the spirit of Hemalata and Pramila. They braved the flooded river by putting their lives in danger and swam across to serve women and children in Suapali and Nerudipali villages.

Role models!

Even the strong currents of a swelling...
