# SFI demands action over student suicides in Andhra Pradesh 2026-08-09T06:42:00+00:00 | India | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet The Student Federation of India (SFI) has expressed concern over the deaths of four students who died by suicide within two days in Andhra Pradesh. State president P. Rammohan and secretary K. Prasanna Kumar, in a press release, demanded stringent action against those responsible for the death of GSL Medical College student Priyanka, who they allege was knocked down by a vehicle in Rajamahendravaram. The SFI alleged that the conduct and functioning of educational institution managements are major contributing factors to student suicides. They pointed to the Supreme Court's 2025 judgment in the Sukhdev case, which mandates counsellors and complaint committees for colleges with over 100 students, and claimed these guidelines are not being implemented, with the government's response limited to announcements. ## Coverage - thehindu.com Tags: Andhra Pradesh, educational institutions, Priyanka death, SFI, student suicides, Supreme Court judgment Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/sfi-demands-action-over-student-suicides-in-andhra-pradesh/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
