Puttur, Nov 26: A PUC student, who was hospitalised after consuming toxic pesticides used in the garden, passed away without responding to nearly 12 days of treatment.

Nisha (17), daughter of Manjappa Gowda, a resident of Sampya Bailadi, died.

Nisha B M was studying in the first year of a private college in Puttur. She participated in a national-level sports meet (running competition) held in Bihar a fortnight ago and had returned home without winning any prize.

On November 13 in the evening, she reportedly consumed the pesticide applied to the garden and then was taken to a doctor of a private hospital in Puttur where she was given first aid treatment. Later, Nisha was taken to a private hospital in Mangaluru for further treatment.

In a complaint filed by Nisha's brother with the Puttur rural police station, he said that his sister Nisha had failed to respond to the treatment and had breathed her last on Saturday, November 25 in the evening. There was no other suspicion concerning her death, he said in the complaint.

A case has been registered in this regard.

    Never heard an athlete suicide due to bad performance. Unlike academics, athletes keeps excelling and try to improve all the time. One result doesn't matter much and it only provides more encouragement for better practice and efforts. Most probably the family to is trying to hide something.

    Failure is the stepping stone to success. Great people in the history failed in life but never gave up. Todays kids are not tough in life. Feel sad for the girl and family.

    Something smells of either parenting gone wrong or school/peer pressure, here but not sure, and investigators will have their last say. If there’s involvement of parents or any other avenues, then indeed, excessively compulsion can have detrimental effects on children or ward. Striking a balance is essential, as fostering a healthy environment involves allowing children to explore, make mistakes, and develop their own identities. The pressure of compulsive competition can lead to stress and anxiety, hindering the child's emotional well-being. Encouraging a more balanced and supportive approach, where children feel valued for who they are rather than just their achievements, is crucial for their overall development. Equanimity in parenting can contribute to a more positive and harmonious family dynamic. Parents and peers should be more responsible unless the child has psychological problems. A beautiful life is lost and it’s so sad and grieving.

    Life has become so competitive. Even kg 1 first std parents talk about their kids achievements. First standard kids have to stay back for remedial classes if the child is not so good in studies. Meaning school management is inflicting into child's brain to think "i am not good". Parents talk about these remedial class kids so tiny angels. And later these same kids who achieved fail to accept failure.

    RIP Nisha. The problem is we are teaching our children for success. We don't ready them for failures..

    Everything is "vasheela" ka zamaana. Influence only. There is a famous saying "No pain no gain" AND 'No money no honey". Some people who have "vasheela" godfathers and godmothers are lucky enough to achieve their dreams without toiling for it. It was unfortunate for this departed soul. Sab taqdeer ka khel hai bhai.

    The fact she got selected to a national level meet at 17 is so commendable. Unfortunately generation z is very soft and mentally not strong.

    She might have been bullied either by her classmate or pals or might be her own teachers. A few encouraging words from her parents and teachers would have motivated her and she would have excelled. RIP NIsha and condolences to the bereaved members of the family.

    Hard to digest these days how peoüle are simply suicide because they are either not successful in life ,sports or in business.Wish her parents should have supported her by telling that not everyone takes part in sports or other events can be successful but was a luck she was chosen.One should think not every effort leads to success but go on trying or one should take it sportlich.Heartfelt sympathy to her Family.She was only 17years ,not yet matured.May her soul rest in Peace.

    So sad to come across these incidents when present day youngsters can't take failures as stepping stones of future successes . I urge the education board to include the articles written by Dr Supriya Hegde to prevent these tragedies. Winning in life is more important than winning in sports and exams.
