The relentless pressure to excel, fear of failure, constant harassment by teachers and family issues are driving students in Telangana State to take the extreme step of ending their own lives, this year.
In the last few months, nearly 30 students have died by suicides due to various reasons. The latest incident took place on Tuesday when a Class VII student took the extreme measure in the hostel of Narayana School, Hayathnagar, Hyderabad.
