New Delhi: A day after the CBSE announced Class 12 exam results, a 17-year-old girl, who failed in exams for the third year in a row, allegedly committed suicide on Friday.

According to police, after the girl found out that she failed her exams again, she returned home, had a meal with her parents and later hung herself from a fan in her room.

According to Indian Express, the girl’s father said, “We don’t know for sure what had actually happened with regard to the exams. We only know that when she came out of the CBSE office, she told my wife that her paper was cancelled. It is possible that she failed again and was afraid to tell us the truth. We don’t really know.”

The father said that she was struggling with English.

In 2017, the girl had reportedly failed in her Class 12 exams and got a compartment in 2018. Last year, she had dropped out of school and gave her compartment this year.
