Kundapur, Jul 12: A ninth standard student killed himself as he got distraught over the advice given by his mother not to play in the rain. The shocking incident that occured on June 11 has been reported from Karkala near Saligrama.
Nagendra (14), son of Laxmi Poojarthi, is the deceased boy.
He was a student of a private high school in Karkala and had been to the school grounds to play as it was a holiday. In the afternoon, when Nagendra went for lunch at the canteen run by his mother, she reprimanded him for playing in the rain. She also asked him to go home and have lunch as there was a rush in the canteen due to peak hours.
An upset Nagendra went home and hanged himself. A case in this regard has been registered in Kota police station.
Krishna Poojary, father of deceased boy Nagendra and husband of Laxmi Poojarti had died two years ago. The family was in debt as they spent a lot of money on Krishna’s medical treatment before his death. Later, Laxmi Poojarti was leading her life with a toddler son and daughter by running a canteen.
Laxmi banked on Nagendra to be her support and is extremely depressed over the impulsive act of her son.
