Indian student dies in safety drill jump

    An Indian student has died after she was forced to jump from a building in a safety drill.

    19-year-old N Logeshwari died after jumping into a net held by fellow students in a safety exercise in the southern state of Tamil Nadu.

    Witnesses say the instructor pushed her as she was reluctant to jump.

    Police have arrested the training instructor and are reportedly interrogating the principal of the institution.
