A girl from Junagadh died by suicide after jumping from the 13th floor of a building over not getting an admission into a medical college.

Vrithi Vaghela (18) celebrated her birthday on Aug 17. Later, she left the house on the pretext of going to get ice cream, and went to a building near her residence.

She went to the rooftop of a 13-story building, Balaji Heights, and jumped to her death.

When she did not return home, a search was launched by the family but no trace of her was found.

Meanwhile, residents of Balaji Heights informed the Junagadh C Division police about the incident.

DySP Hitesh Dhandalia said, “Vriti attempted the NEET twice but did not secure the required score. Her family members said that she committed suicide as she was not getting admission in the medical course.”

The police have registered a case of accidental death and are conducting further investigation.
