A 17-year-old Class 12 student in Jaipur's Jhotwara area died after consuming a patty from the school canteen, according to his family, who allege school negligence. The student, a resident of Brijmandal Colony, fell unconscious at school and later died in the hospital, his family stated.

The student's body was eventually taken to the hospital, where doctors declared him dead. Police will determine the exact cause of death after the post-mortem report.
