Parents, friends protest in front of Delhi school after Class 10 student ends his life

There was no immediate reaction from the school administration to the allegations.

The victim student's aunt claimed the family had been unaware of the extent of his suffering.

"He was depressed for so long. He kept complaining, but we stayed quiet because he was in Class 10. He even told his school counsellors and teachers that he was going to commit suicide, but none of them informed us. We only heard this from his friends today," she told PTI.

The student's sister said he was extremely talented in dance and theatre and had recently won a competition, but the school "refused to give him the certificate".

Police said the Class 10 boy jumped from the platform of Rajendra Place Metro Station at 2.34 pm on Tuesday. He was taken to BLK Super Speciality Hospital, where he was declared dead.
