Maharashtra: Class 10 Student Dies By Suicide After Teacher's Scolding And Feeling Insulted In Class

In a heartbreaking incident in Amravati, Maharashtra, a 15-year-old student of Class 10, Vivek Mahadev Raut, committed suicide, leaving behind a note accusing his teacher of humiliating him in public. The student of Jai Bajrang Vidyalaya, according to reports, was sent into a deep state of insult after being scolded and made fun of in front of his classmates for not being able to answer questions.

As per media reports, Vivek could not respond to questions posed to him by his teacher, who is named Suryavanshi. This resulted in a scolding and, distressingly, laughter from his classmates. The teacher then allegedly threatened to inform Vivek's parents about his lack of academic effort, stating, "I will tell your parents that you are not studying."

The immense embarrassment and insult Vivek experienced ultimately led to him taking his own life. His suicide note stated, "I am hanging myself... because the Suryavanshi teacher lashed out at me and spoke about my parents. I am hanging myself."

Following this tragedy, the teacher was reportedly assaulted by neighbours and is hospitalised at present. A police case has been registered against the teacher, and an investigation into the incident is ongoing.
