Tragic
Death
of
Shraddha
Prompts
Calls
For
Action
Shraddha,
a
Thiruvankulam
native
from
Tripunithura
in
Ernakulam
district,
was
tragically
discovered
hanging
in
her
hostel
room
on
Friday
evening,
reportedly
after
her
mobile
phone
was
confiscated
by
college
authorities.
Her
family
alleges
that
the
mental
torment
inflicted
by
a
teacher
played
a
significant
role
in
her
death.
They
also
accuse
the
college
authorities
of
deliberately
neglecting
to
seek
immediate
medical
assistance
for
Shraddha.
According
to
Shraddha's
classmates,
the
unfortunate
chain
of
events
began
when
the
college
authorities
reprimanded
her
for
using
her
mobile
phone
in
the
college
laboratory.
They
confiscated
her
phone
for
two
days
and
called
Shraddha's
parents
from
Ernakulam
to
collect
it.
The
head
of
the
department
summoned
Shraddha
to
his
office,
where
she
was
subjected
to
a
scolding.
Shortly
after
this
incident,
Shraddha
confided
in
friends
about
contemplating
suicide
and
expressed
her
exhaustion
with
life.
When
the
college
authorities
informed
Shraddha's
family
about
the
incident,
they
cited
her
declining
marks
in
the
semester
examination,
which
likely
added
to
her
distress.
The
family
alleges
that
Shraddha
took
her
own
life
due
to
the
mental
anguish
and
humiliation
she
experienced
at
the
hands
of
the
college
authorities.
This
tragic
event
has
sparked
outrage
and
demands
for
accountability
within
the
educational
system.
Calls
for
a
thorough
investigation
into
the
circumstances
surrounding
Shraddha's
death
and
the
implementation
of
necessary
reforms
to
prevent
similar
incidents
have
grown
stronger.
