The police have recovered a suicide note from the scene, which read the girl failed in five papers of the first semester as she could not understand English and was mocked for being a Hindi medium student. 

A BTech first-year student at a government college in Indore allegedly committed suicide by hanging herself from the ceiling fan in her hostel room on Thursday. The female student was studying electrical engineering from Shri GS Institute of Technology and Science (SGSITS) in Indore. 

The police have recovered a suicide note from the scene, which said the girl failed in five papers of the first semester as she could not understand English and was mocked for being a Hindi medium student. 

The suicide note read, “I studied in Hindi medium till class 12th. My maternal uncle asked the family to enrol me in a Hindi medium college for higher education, but my father got me admitted to a Bachelor of Engineering at a reputed college. I could not understand English, and for that, I was mocked (in college) many times. I was facing many problems due to this. In the first semester, I failed in five subjects.” 

Tukoganj police station in-charge Kamlesh Sharma said the girl did not attend classes on Thursday as she was not feeling well. Later during the day, her roommates found her hanging from the ceiling fan.
