A 14-year-old Dalit girl from Valanchery has reportedly committed suicide as she didn't have the facilities to attend the online classes for her Class IX studies.
The deceased student has been identified as Devika, daughter of Balakrishnan and Sheeba, residents of Mangeri near Valanchery.
Police said the girl went missing after 4 PM on Monday. Her body was later found at an open place just 100 metres away from the house.
The parents said their daughter might have committed suicide due to the unavailability of facilities in their house to attend the online classes.
However, police said the reason behind the death can only be confirmed after the inquest.
