Shahjahanpur, Aug 12 (IANS) A nursing student was critically injured after she allegedly jumped off the first floor of a medical college here in Uttar Pradesh, police said on Wednesday.
Superintendent of Police S Anand told reporters that the incident took place at Varun Arjun Medical College on Tuesday after which the victim was admitted to a hospital.
The victim's family, however, alleged that the student was being mentally harassed for refusing duty in a COVID-19 hospital.
An FIR has been lodged on the basis of the family members complaint, the SP said.
The student had earlier uploaded a video on social media in which she is purportedly heard saying that she had been deployed at a COVID-19 hospital but refused to work there as she does not have health insurance. She also demanded a hike in salary.

District Magistrate Indra Vikram Singh said a case has been lodged and action would be taken in the matter.
