A 22-year-old medical student reportedly committed suicide by hanging herself from the ceiling fan at her house in the Kothapeta area of the city on Wednesday night. She was reportedly upset over her inability to clear subjects even after multiple attempts.
Chodavarapu Himaja, pursuing third year MBBS from Siddhartha Medical College in the city, was found hanging by her sister.
The victim left a suicide note stating that she had no interest in MBBS since the beginning and was unable to clear supplementary examinations of first and second years as the course was tough for her, police said. She also said no one was responsible for her death.
