Tragedy struck in Kota, Rajasthan, as two NEET aspirants died by suicide after taking exams. Avishkar, a 16-year-old student, jumped from his coaching institute's sixth floor, while Adarsh Raj hanged himself in his rented flat. Their deaths highlight the rising mental stress faced by students preparing for competitive exams. Kota's district administration responded by staying tests and exams at coaching centres for two months. Amidst concerns, the state government ordered the installation of spring-loaded fans in rooms to provide mental support. This tragedy underscores the need to address the toll of academic pressure on students.
