DUMKA: A 17-year-old girl killed herself after failing to persuade her parents to build a toilet in their house. Khushboo Kumari, a first year BA student in A N College, Dumka, hanged herself at her Gaushala Road home Friday, embarrassed to have to go out to the fields for daily ablutions.

"Khushboo would insist we build a toilet inside the house. We built a boundary wall instead," said the teen's mother Sanjhu Devi, adding, "She'd often go to her grandfather's home nearby to relieve herself." The family owns a pucca (cement-bricked) four-room house with a courtyard but a toilet was never a priority.

Sripati Yadav, Khushboo's father said he planned to save money for her marriage rather than build a toilet.
