Kundapur, Jul 24: A college student has ended her life by hanging from the window in bedroom on late night of Saturday, July 23 and the death note she left says that she took the extreme step as she did not get sufficient love from her family.

Pragathi Shetty (16) is the girl deceased. She is the second daughter of Ganesh Shetty the main singer (Bhagavatha) of Mandharthy Yakshagana Mela. She had studied in Morarji Desai residential school till her SSLC last year. She had just joined Bidkalkatte pre university Government College this year for her PUC in commerce.

She had a quarrel with a classmate on Friday and the parents were called to the college regarding the matter and Pragathi was counselled. She was hurt by the fact her parents shouted at her and this could have prompted her to end life, some locals said. But the college principal denied this.

But as per sources, the death note found in the house says that “My family did not love me. Only my younger sister was loved. When I lived in the Morarji residential school, they did not visit me much. Why should I live if I am not loved by my own family?"

The house where the family of Pragathi lived was constructed only a year back.

Kota police who arrived at the place took the body for post-mortem.

A case stands registered at Kota police station.
