Class X student commits 'suicide' over exam tension

A 15-year-old girl allegedly committed suicide at her home in north Delhi's Burari area today as she was tensed over her Class 10 examination due next year, police said.
She was found hanging from a ceiling fan in her room, they said, adding no suicide note was found on the spot.
Prima facie, it looks as if she committed suicide owing to exam pressure but the exact cause is yet to be known, said a senior police officer.

Her father is a farmer while mother is a homemaker, they said.
