In a tragic incident, a Class 10 student died after jumping from the fourth-floor lobby of her school during recess on July 24. The incident, captured on CCTV, shows the 16-year-old girl walking calmly through the corridor, twirling a keychain, before she climbs over the railing and jumps—despite visible efforts by her classmates to stop her.
The girl sustained critical injuries and succumbed during treatment the following day.
Police have registered a medico-legal case and are investigating the possibility of mental health struggles as a factor behind the incident. According to school authorities, the student had been enrolled at the institution for the past five years.
Officials are currently reviewing CCTV footage and speaking with her family members and teachers to better understand the situation. While no foul play is suspected at this stage, the investigation remains ongoing.
