In a shocking incident that has rattled a city school, in Ahilyanagar, an 8th-grade student allegedly stabbed a 10th-grade student to death with a knife during lunch break. The murder reportedly stemmed from an old dispute over playing cricket in front of the accused's house. The incident occurred around 3:30 PM on Wednesday at a city school. The father of the deceased student filed a complaint with the Topkhana Police.His son was a 10th-grade student who had attended a supplementary board exam in the morning.

School teachers immediately rushed him to the district hospital on a motorcycle, but he was declared dead before receiving treatment. Since both students are minors, their names have not been disclosed.Old Dispute Led to Fatal AttackPolice have taken the minor accused and his friend into custody. The accused had remained at the school after the incident, and his parents were also present before the police took him. In his complaint, the deceased's father stated that his son used to play cricket in front of his mother-in-law's house.
