District Topper Dies Hours Before Exam

A promising 17-year-old student in Kanpur has tragically died by suicide, just hours before a crucial pre-board examination for his class 12 studies. The student, who had achieved district-level top marks in his class 10 board exams with 97.4 percent, was discovered deceased beside railway tracks near the Juhi railway yard.

His father reported him missing after he did not return home from leaving for school early Monday morning. His motorcycle was later found near the railway yard, where his body was subsequently located. This incident has deeply shocked his family and the local community.

Authorities have sent the body for a post-mortem examination and are conducting a thorough investigation into the cause of his death. They are reviewing his digital devices and interviewing his friends in an effort to understand the circumstances that led to this extreme act.
