NEET-PG Aspirant Dies by Suicide in Hyderabad Before Exam
A 26-year-old medical graduate was preparing for the NEET-PG examination in Hyderabad.
She had been studying for about seven months and was due to take the test the next day.
Police said she was found unconscious in her private hostel room.
Hostel staff took her to a hospital, where she was declared dead.
Police said an unknown poisonous substance was involved.
A purported note reportedly said she had experienced depression since classes 11-12.
Police also said she had been taking medication for depression.
The note did not mention the examination, so the reports do not establish that the test caused her death.
