A 19-year-old NEET aspirant from Madhya Pradesh allegedly died by suicide in her hostel room in the Talwandi area of this Rajasthan district, police said on Wednesday.
The victim was identified as Rashi Jain, a resident of Sagar district in Madhya Pradesh. She was preparing for the national eligibility cum entrance test in Kota for over a year and was due to take the exam on May 7.
Rashi was last spotted outside her hostel room on Monday evening. When she did not come out of the room till late Tuesday morning, the hostel warden informed the police, which reached the spot and broke open her room. The girl was found hanging from the ceiling fan, said Assistant Circle Inspector at Jawahar Nagar Police Station Vasudev.
Packets of several medicines were found on Rashi's table, he said, adding that no suicide note was recovered from her room.
