Police said the incident came to light after the girl’s father returned home around 1:30 pm for lunch and discovered her hanging inside her room. At the time of the incident, no other family member was present in the house.
The family immediately informed the police, following which a team reached the spot and began an investigation. The body was later sent for postmortem examination.
The victim’s family originally belongs to Bihar’s Rohtas district and has been living in Gurgaon for work and education. Her father runs a ration shop, while her mother teaches at a private school. She is survived by her parents and elder brother.
Investigators recovered a suicide note from the student’s belongings. In the note, she reportedly mentioned a young man she had known for nearly a year and described feeling emotionally hurt and misunderstood.
The note allegedly contained repeated apologies and references to constant questioning and emotional pressure. She also reportedly described an incident at her tuition centre where she felt insulted and harassed by a friend.
One line in the note referred to a birthday-related incident, stating that the person involved “knew what happened” that made her feel worse emotionally.
Police officials said they are investigating all angles in the case. The boy mentioned in the note has been contacted and his conversations and chats linked to the victim are being examined.
The girl’s father has accused the youth of harassing his daughter. Officials said statements from family members and others connected to the case are being recorded.
