HYDERABAD: Two Inter students committed suicide in the state on Thursday, one before the results were declared and the other on finding out that he had failed a subject.
An Intermediate student from Chegunta in Medak district, who was anxious about failing the exams, committed suicide hours before the Board of Intermediate Examinations (BIE) announced the results. She had, as she had feared, not cleared a subject.
Chegunta police said K Shilpa,18, who is an Intermediate second year student, hanged herself in the absence of her parents.
When her mother Pentamma returned home, the teenager was dead. Police said Shilpa, who is a student from a local government college, informed her parents about her fear of failing. “For the last couple of days, Shilpa, who was a BiPC student, had been tense about the results. Her father comforted her by asking her not to bother about the outcome of the exams, but she committed suicide by hanging herself to the ceiling fan in her bedroom before the results were announced,’’ Cheguta police said. The incident took place around 8.30 am.
According to police, at the time of incident both her parents were not at home.
In an another case, 19-year-old Sandeep, who is an MPC second year student, committed suicide in Miyapur on coming to know that he failed in mathematics. He fell short by just two marks.
After the results were declared, Sandeep rang up his father and informed him about his scores. He also called up a few of his friends, who came down to his house.
Later in the evening he hanged himself. By the time his father returned, the boy had died. Police did not find any suicide note.
