An SSLC student collapsed and died during a morning walk at CMS Anathalaya in Gundlupet town on Wednesday.
The deceased is Philisha (15), an inmate of the Anathalaya, who was studying at Nirmala Convent in the town.
The teenager reportedly suddenly collapsed during the morning walk. She was immediately shifted to the government hospital in the town, where the doctors declared her dead upon arrival. Philisha died of cardiac arrest, said doctors, who examined her.
