A girl committed suicide after she reportedly performed poorly in the annual Plus II Science examinations.
Minakshi Pradhan, a student of a city-based private residential institute and a resident of the Astarang area in Puri district, hanged herself in her hostel room, sources said.
The sources said she had expected above 80-85 per cent mark. But as she got a second division, she lost mental balance and locked herself in her room and hanged from the ceiling fan.
