She (10) carries her physically challenged brother (12) to/from school, spending 9 hours daily, in the hills of Gorkha. No boarding at school. Friends help him go to toilet.

#Rohingyas must not be rushed out of #Bangladesh without their consent. For safe, dignified & sustainable return, root causes of the #RohingyaCrisis must be addressed. 'Worst would be to transfer them from camps in #Bangladesh to camps in #Myanmar'-#UNSG https://t.co/PEXLOMFa1D
