Pariyar was pinned under a fallen metal gate and concrete wall after the quake. She was pulled out when people passing by saw her hair, and was transported to the hospital.

"I was unconscious but I was told one of my legs was barely attached to my body. They put the leg in a cardboard box and took me to the hospital," she said.
