According to Superintendent of Police S Anand, the student suffered 60 per cent burns and has been referred to a hospital in Lucknow for better treatment.

The girl had come to attend her classes accompanied by her father on Monday. As she did not come out after the classes, her father started looking for her.

The girl from a village in the Jalalabad police station area is a student of Swami Shukdevanand Postgraduate College, run by Mumukshu Ashram of Chinmayanand.

The girl”s father said that he used to bring his daughter to the college once in a week or fortnight and used to wait outside till classes ended.

In a separate incident in the district, the body of a five-year-old girl was recovered while her seven-year-old cousin sister was found injured in the Kanth police station area here.
