Ferozepur, September 13, 2021: The craze for going abroad for higher studies and later on settled there is getting momentum among the youths but started taking lives over low IELTS score, as getting certain fixed bands in exams is one of the pre-condition.\u00a0 In one such case, under depression over low IELTS (International English Language Testing System) score, a 23-year-old woman committed suicide by consuming poisonous substance on Sunday. Her family members got to know about the mishap later when they went to her room.<\/p>\n

The deceased family members informed that Pawandeep Kaur wanted to go abroad for higher studies for which she had been preparing for an exam and had appeared in \u00a0exams for two-three times but could not get the desired score in IELTS.\u00a0 A few days back, she has appeared in the exam again but could not clear.

An old timer, S.P.Khera said, the tags ‘NRI’, ‘foreign returned’, ‘green card holder’ etc, are held in high esteem in our country. Even in the marriage market these tags are valuable. With this sort of mentality, it is not surprising that our children dream of going abroad for higher studies, jobs, etc. not realising the pitfalls. He said, please do not demean our country in such a rush to go out.\u00a0 The Indian education system is still one of the best in the world, and India is still a great country to live in.<\/p>\n
