Telangana Surgeon Dies by Suicide After Partner Cites Caste to End Marriage; Teen Also Dies

  • A 23-year-old house surgeon in Siddipet, Telangana, died by suicide after her partner allegedly backed out of marriage due to caste differences.
  • She was found unconscious on Saturday, treated at Siddipet government hospital, then shifted to Nizam’s Institute of Medical Sciences (NIMS) in Hyderabad, where she died Sunday.
  • Police arrested the partner after the woman's family filed a complaint; he is now in judicial custody.
  • In a separate incident, a 14-year-old boy in Gowlidoddi, Hyderabad, died by suicide after being reprimanded by his mother.
  • The boy's father, D Mohan, reported the incident to Gachibowli police, stating his wife found their son unresponsive.

Why It Matters: Two suicides in Telangana highlight relationship and family pressures, with caste discrimination a factor in one.
