Vellore District Primary Education Officer Marus said that four students of the Panappakkam government school near Arakkonam in Vellore district on Friday (November 24) died after the death of their school teacher Ramamani and teacher Meenakshi.
Vellore district police officials said that four students who were studying in the 11th class - Deepa, Manisha, Sankari and Revathi had crossed 83 feet deep near school last Friday and sent their body back to the main test.
Vellore District Superintendent of Police, Bhagavan, said that the parents had said that they were suspected in the deaths of their parents. "The parents of four girls have claimed that they have been killed and committed suicide. They say that they have spoken directly to their parents because they have telephone numbers of parents. We have started the investigation. We are investigating how these students have taken this decision, "he said.
The death of these four students indicates that we need to work immediately to prevent the suicidal behavior of young adolescent children, "says social activist Devnyaan.
"Our classrooms should be a smart class. We think that there should be modern age ideas in the curriculum. But the lesson does not make any difference in teaching. Students must ask what the authors say. The authors do not seem to make any effort to find out what the problem with the students is. The environment must be created in schools to talk to children or to advise them, "says Devaniyan.
As four students died at the same time, talking to other children should make sure that suicide is unnecessary, "said Lakshmi Vijayakumar, who runs the suicide prevention helpline center.
"Though a group of women committed suicide, there was an idea that only one person had to commit suicide. If a group of children has suicidal thoughts, it is difficult to find. Many teachers who came to my counsel told me that they were depressed, fearing students to commit suicide, "Lakshmi told.
