Jabalpur (Madhya Pradesh): Another teenage suicide was reported in Madhya Pradesh on Wednesday, when a 14-year-old girl hanged herself to death. The girl took the extreme step after her mother scolded her for spending excessive time on her mobile phone.

The incident occurred in Gupta Nagar area of Jabalpur. The young girl, Arushi Singh, was found hanging by a scarf in her room. Her mother, Sunanda Dehariya, who works as a staff nurse at Medical Hospital, was shocked to see her daughter's hanging body early in the morning as she returned from her night shift.

Similarly, two days ago, a 13-year-old girl allegedly jumped from the 14th floor of a residential building in Indore.

According to information, Sunanda had left for her night duty around 9 PM on June 18, leaving Arushi at home. When she returned around 8 AM on June 19, she found the door closed and Arushi hanging inside. Overwhelmed with grief, Sunanda started screaming and crying, which alerted the neighbors, who then informed the police.
