Later, the teenager tried slitting his wrist to kill himself, following which the PG owner reported the matter to the Child Welfare Committee (CWC), the officials added.

A CWC team rescued the boy in the evening and sent him to a shelter home, where he is currently being counselled, and his parents are expected to reach soon, they said.

CWC member Vimal Jain told PTI the teen is a student of Class 12 and was preparing for NEET at a coaching institute here for over a year. He had shifted to the PG in Vishvakarma Road earlier this month.
