A college student in Telangana died by suicide, reportedly due to fear and anxiety over her upcoming examinations. The victim was a first-year intermediate student at a private college in Hyderabad and a resident of Medak district.
According to police, the student had returned home to Medak for the Shivaratri festival but had been struggling with a lack of interest in studies and mounting stress over her impending exams. Her parents, concerned about her reluctance towards academics, brought her back from Hyderabad on February 1 with plans to enroll her in another institution.
However, as the March 5 exams approached, the pressure appeared to have intensified, police said. On March 1, at approximately 4 pm, the victim was found hanging from a ceiling fan in her bedroom. Family members noticed her hanging through a window and rushed her to a nearby government hospital, where doctors pronounced her dead on arrival.
Police have registered a case and initiated an investigation into the circumstances surrounding her death.
