Classmate's blow kills student

HOWRAH, DEC. 15. A student died after allegedly receiving fatal blows from a fellow student inside their Vivekananda institution class room at Sibpur in Howrah district today.

Police said kuntal Ghosh, a Class IX student, and Anjan Makal were fighting over the right to sit on a particular bench. Makal struck some forceful blows which were too hard for Ghosh to withstand.

The authorities of the institute called for a doctor, who pronounced Kuntal dead, police added.
