Rejected by DU, student commits suicide

Unable to get admission in Delhi University allegedly drove a 17-year-old girl to hang herself at her residence in east Delhi on Tuesday evening.

Prachi Singh Gaur had applied for the BA English course in five DU colleges after her Class XII results were announced. She could not get through any of the two university cut-off lists. Prachi had dreamt of becoming a news anchor and was depressed that her friends got their names in the second cut-off lists on Monday.
