In a shocking case reported under the MVP Police Station limits in Visakhapatnam, a teenage girl attempted suicide in disappointment over not getting her favourite snacks from her mother. As per the police report, she is battling for her life at a private hospital due to fatal head injuries.

The girl is currently pursuing BiPC intermediate at a residential college in Kommadi. On Tuesday, 29 August 2023, she visited her parents’ residence in MVP Colony to celebrate her birthday. On Wednesday, while she was returning to college, her mother packed some snacks to send her off.
