NEET 2023 aspirant from Bihar commits suicide in Kota hostel, 5th such incident this year

Kota: An 18 year old NEET aspirant from Bihar allegedly committed suicide by hanging herself from a ceiling fan in her hostel room here on Tuesday, police said.
The deceased has been identified as Shembul Parveen, they said.
She came to Kota from West Champaran in Bihar in June last year and enrolled herself in a coaching institute for NEET preparations, they said.
The police is yet to ascertain the reason behind the extreme step as no suicide note was recovered from her room, however her parents claimed that the girl was upset over scoring low marks in tests, police said.
The teen’s parents were in Kota for the last couple of days to find her a new hostel as she had complained about the food being served there, they said.
The parents had gone out in the morning and upon returning, they found their daughter hanging from a ceiling fan in her hostel room, they said.
