A 17-Year-Old NEET Aspirant Beaten to Death by Her Own Father
In a gut-wrenching tragedy that has shaken the entire nation, a 17-year-old girl named Sadhana Bhosale from Nelkaranji village in Sangli district, Maharashtra, lost her life at the hands of her own fatherโall because she scored poorly in a NEET mock test.
Sadhana, a bright and hopeful Class 12 student, had long nurtured the dream of becoming a doctor. But on the night of her mock exam results, her dreamโand her lifeโwas brutally snatched away.
A Question That Triggered Brutality
When confronted by her father, Dhondiram Bhosale, a headmaster by profession, about her low marks, Sadhana reportedly replied:
“Papa, aap kaun se collector ban gaye the? Aapke bhi to marks kam the.”
(โDad, which collector did you become? You too had low marks.โ)
What followed was a horror no child should ever face. Enraged by her response, her father picked up a wooden stick and beat her mercilesslyโthroughout the night.
A Night of Pain. A Morning of Neglect.
Despite her severe injuries, Dhondiram did not take Sadhana to the hospital. Instead, he went on to attend an International Yoga Day event the next morning, leaving his daughter unconscious at home.
By the time he returned and tried to get her medical help, it was too late. Sadhana was declared dead before treatment could begin.
Justice Begins, But the Pain Remains
The local police have arrested Dhondiram Bhosale. An FIR has been filed, and a deeper investigation is underway.
But for the villagers of Nelkaranjiโand for everyone who hears this heartbreaking storyโthe emotional damage is irreparable.
When Dreams Are Crushed By Expectations
Sadhanaโs death is not just a case of domestic violence. It is a tragic reflection of the toxic pressure placed on students in the name of academic excellence, especially in the fiercely competitive medical entrance space.
No exam, no grade, no result should ever be greater than a child’s life.
