ADILABAD: A PUC first-year student of IIIT Basar died by suicide in a college washroom on Tuesday afternoon following a physics exam held in the morning, the police said. While some students on the campus claimed as a reason authorities forcefully vacating students from their rooms a few days ago, dumping their luggage and books in other rooms, a few others said that the examiner at the physics exam warned to debar a group of students who were allegedly sharing information while taking the exam. Vice Chancellor Prof. Venkataramana, directors and teaching and other staff of IIIT-Basar expressed their deep condolence over the student’s death.
