Jammu, May 23: A student of government girls higher secondary school, Mubarak Mandi, today allegedly committed suicide for securing marks below her expectation in the 12th class state board exams the results of which were declared today.
Divya Suri secured nearly 70 per cent marks while she had expected more than 90 per cent. She was a student of Mubarak Mandi girls higher secondary school, police sources said.
She stayed with her parents in lane No 3 of Pamposh Colony, Janipura. Her father Kuldeep Raj Suri is head draftsman in drainage and sewerage department at Narwal here.
Kuldeep had gone to Katra along with his wife in connection with the fourth death anniversary of his father.
The couple has three daughters. While the elder had gone to her office, the other, pursuing higher studies, was also not at home. Divya was the youngest.
Sources said Divya received a phone call in the afternoon from her friend who told her that she had received nearly 70 per cent marks.
This upset her because she had expected more than 90 per cent marks. As she was all alone at home, she allegedly committed suicide by hanging herself from the ceiling fan hook, the sources added.
The Janipura police came to know about the incident in the evening.
Soon thereafter, they rushed to Kuldeep's residence. After completing legal formalities, they evacuated the body to the GMC hospital mortuary.
Post-mortem would be conducted on the body Tuesday morning. It would later be handed over to her family for last rites.
A case in this connection was registered at the Janipura police station.
Meanwhile, Vipan, son of Radha Krishan of Patoli Brahmana, and Masood Ahmed, son of Ghulam Ahmed of Christian Colony, Residency Road, made abortive bids on their lives after they came to know that they had failed in the exams.
Both of them were undergoing treatment at the GMC hospital. They were said to have consumed some insecticide.
Psychology professor G Q Sheikh felt that tremendous stress due to the increased competitiveness among students was provoking students to take the extreme step.
Parents and teachers had failed to provide a stress-free atmosphere to the children, he said. |
