A student of GSVP Gurukul near Gondal town of Rajkot district collapsed while helping other students move a podium on the dais for a function to mark the festival of Guru Purnima on Monday. Police said the student suffered a heart attack due to a cardiac abnormality.

Devansh Bhayani, a student of Class 10 at the boarding school located in Ribda village near Gondal, collapsed at around 11 am when he and other students were moving a podium on the dias, police said. The 13-year-old boy was rushed to a private hospital in Rajkot where he was pronounced dead, police said.

Later, his body was shifted to the state government-run Pandit Deendayal Upadhyay Government Hospital, popularly known as Rajkot Civil Hospital for post-mortem.

“The primary post-mortem report says the size of the student's heart was bigger for his age, indicating a cardiac abnormality and that he died due to a cardiac arrest,” Dharmarajsinh Zala, police sub-inspector (PSI) who is in charge of Gondal Taluka police station, told The Indian Express.

Devansh was a native of Dhoraji in Rajkot district and was earlier studying at a boarding school in Jamnagar before enrolling with the Gurukul this academic year which began last month, police said.
