In keeping with the tragic trend of student suicides in Kota, India, the “coaching hub,” another National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) candidate has allegedly taken his own life.

In these 3 months of 2024 this is the 7th case of suicide in the city. Notably, the total suicide cases for the previous year was 29.

The deceased Uruz Khan, an Uttar Pradesh native from Kannauj, hung himself on Monday night while residing in a leased apartment in the Vigyan Nagar neighborhood.

When the police arrived, they took the body into custody and sent it to the nearby MBS Hospital’s mortuary.
