Alwar Student Dies By Suicide in Delhi Ahead of NEET-UG Re-Exam

Reenu Meena, 18, from Bhanokhar village in Kathumar, Alwar, died by suicide in a Delhi flat where she was preparing for the medical entrance exam with her siblings. On June 13th, while her siblings were away, Reenu hanged herself. Her body was brought back to the village the next day.

Reenu's uncle Yogesh Meena said she was academically strong and had expected good results, but the cancellation of NEET had caused her significant stress. Bharatpur MP Sanjana Jatav visited the family, stating that the NEET exam leak had stressed many students.

This marks the third suicide among NEET aspirants in Rajasthan. Two other candidates—22-year-old Umesh Mali and Pradeep Mahich, both from Sikar—had also ended their lives reportedly due to exam-related stress.
