Mysuru: A girl’s death due to suspected dengue was a final wake-up call for the Mysuru City Corporation (MCC), college management and the district health officers to act and clean the surroundings of the Maharani’s College Girl’s Hostel. While the MCC began cleaning of weeds in the hostel premises this morning, health officials sent a team of doctors to the hostel to examine students who were down with fever.
Twenty-year-old Sanchitha S. Aradhya, a Second B.Sc student of Maharani’s Science College, died yesterday following high fever. She hailed from Periyapatna and was the daughter of Shanthakumar. Though she was admitted to JSS Hospital, she battled for life for over a week and died yesterday noon.
