Delhi student suicide sparks probe into teacher harassment

India Nov 21, 2025

A 16-year-old Delhi student died by suicide at a metro station on Wednesday, leaving a note naming teachers he said mentally harassed him and asking for his organs to be donated.
The Delhi government has set up a committee to investigate what happened and submit a report within three days.

School staff suspended, mental health in focus

Four staff members, including the headmistress, have been suspended while the case is investigated.
The student's uncle shared that earlier complaints about teacher harassment were ignored and things got worse before her death.
Education officials say schools need stronger mental health support for students, as required by CBSE rules.
