Kasturi Mahalingam, who was allotted Ernakulam to take NEET, scored low marks because of the resultant pressure. His father died following a cardiac arrest, his mother, Bharathi Mahadevi, said. He could muster just 84 marks in the exam.

Krishnasamy Srinivasan of Thiruthuraipoondi in Tiruvarur district, who accompanied his son Kasturi to the exam centre, died following a cardiac arrest in Kochi.

The boy was allotted a centre in Ernakulam and he and his father had to rush to the exam centre under extreme pressure, Ms. Bharathi Mahadevi said.

“Now, it is up to the State government to do something to help my son become a doctor and realise the dream of his father,” she said. Kasturi Mahalingam had secured 825 out of 1,200 marks in the Plus Two exams.
