In the town of Sailana, Madhya Pradesh, a tragic incident unfolded at the Eklavya Model Residential School's hostel. A Class XII student, Varsha Solanki, was found dead in her dormitory after being removed from an examination due to an alleged cheating slip. Varsha, an arts student, had lived on the Eklavya campus since her enrollment.
The examination was set to commence at 10 am and conclude by 1.30 pm. During a routine inspection, duty teacher Preeti Lamba reportedly discovered the cheating slip in Varsha's pocket, leading her to remove the student from the exam and transfer her to the hostel around 11.30 am. Varsha appeared concerned but did not disclose any issues.
Her roommates, Lakshita and Pratibha, returned to the hostel post-examination and discovered Varsha in a suspicious condition. Upon learning about the incident, the school principal, Narendra Gangwal, was promptly dismissed by officials. Police, including SDOP Neelam Baghel and tehsildar Manish Jain, arrived at the scene to investigate the circumstances surrounding the student's untimely demise.
The exact cause of her death remains under investigation, and it is not yet clear whether the death is linked to the examination incident or another factor. The family requested a post-mortem examination, which was facilitated by the officials. However, a group of Tribal hostel students protested against the removal of Varsha's body, preventing it from being taken to Ratlam Medical College for examination.
As the investigation continues, the exact sequence of events leading to Varsha's unfortunate end remains unclear.
