Two 10th standard girls, upset over being scolded by their teachers, allegedly jumped into Sankey Tank and ended their lives on Tuesday. Priyanka and Sonali were students of Mary Immaculate High School in Wilson Garden.
They went to Sankey Tank around 12.30 pm. The watchman saw them sitting on the bank, still in their uniforms. At around 2.30 pm, the body of one of the girls was discovered floating in the lake.
Police and emergency services rushed to the spot. On removing the first body, they found the second one as well.
Police sources said the two girls had fastened their hands together with a tie before jumping into the tank. In a suicide note found with their belongings, neatly arranged on a park bench, the girls blamed two teachers Mary Laila and Philomena Immanuel. Police said they were verifying the contents of the note.
Sonali's father Dayanand Sagar is a cab driver and Priyanka's father Janardhan is an officer in the fire force. The teachers had pulled up the girls for poor performance and lack of attention in class. They had met their parents in this regard.
On Tuesday morning, the two girls are said to have been punished for playing Holi.
Sadashivanagar police have registered a case of abetment to suicide against the teachers. The girls' bodies were sent for post mortem. The school authorities were not reachable for comment.

Sankey Tank in Bangalore was built in the year 1882 by Col. Richard Hieram Sankey of the Madras Sappers Regiment, to satisfy the water supply demands of Bangalore. The Sankey Tank was also known as Gandhadhakotikere, for the reason that Sandalwood Depot used to be located close to the lake.

Bengaluru's lakes are slowly being choked, fear the city's residents. Toxic foam has taken over Whitefield's Varthur lake. And now, luxury condos may come up soon next to Malleswaram's Sankey tank, which, locals say, will destroy the lake's avian habitat and contaminate the water with sewage.

SANKEY TANK BLUES
Sitting at Sankey Park watching its water-body
Wondering how they carved out this sea
Looking across the bridge at that concrete violin
Please play me a requeim, my old friend
For I don't know when this tank
Will drown to its end
I got the Sankey Tank Blues
We keep paying our dues
After Mud and Miller Tank sank
Who could we thank
So tell me what's news
For I got the Sankey Tank Blues
Gazing at this water-bowl's rippling expanse
Watching the trees and their reflection dance
But what do I see from this aqueous mirror
The leaves on her trees
Rustle and sigh
As they wave goodbye
I got the Sankey Tank Blues
For we keep paying our dues
After Mud and Miller Tank sank
Who could we thank
So tell me what's news
For I got the Hanky Panky Sankey Tank Blues
It's fluttering ducks will have to pack up
Once the water flows out and structures stack up
So much glowing surface reduced to mud
Clouds so dark cover this park
It's twisted fate
This tank will evaporate
Maybe some day, we will find a way
To treat water from the Big Bay
Or we can always charge a fee
For making water out of pee
Or if worse comes to worse
We can empty our purse
And get the water from the blocks
Of the melting Himalayan stocks
I got the Sankey Tank Blues
For we keep paying our dues
After Mud and Miller Tank sank
Who could we thank
So tell me what's news
For I got the Hanky Panky Skanky Ranky Sankey Tank Blues

Sankey tank is a popular lake in Bengaluru and attracts many people. The lake is also credited to be a biological hotspot. It’s rather amusing that BBMP has given permission to a popular brand to organize a sport activity in the lake premises, which is in violation of a high court order.

Sankey reservoir was constructed in 1882 and the works cost Rupees 575000. It was linked to the Miller's tank and Dharmambudhi tank and was built as a safeguard against water shortages, such as that experienced in the Great Famine of 1875-77. The quality of water was not very good and when Lord Connemara, Governor of Madras visited in July 1888 it was commented upon by a local wit: "The men who are thrown off their horses and killed on the spot at Bangalore are the only ones that are allowed by doctors not to have died from drinking bad water".

Two 10th standard girls, upset over being scolded by their teachers, allegedly jumped into Sankey Tank and ended their lives on Tuesday. Priyanka and Sonali were students of Mary Immaculate High School in Wilson Garden.
They went to Sankey Tank around 12.30 pm. The watchman saw them sitting on the bank, still in their uniforms. At around 2.30 pm, the body of one of the girls was discovered floating in the lake.
Police and emergency services rushed to the spot. On removing the first body, they found the second one as well.
Police sources said the two girls had fastened their hands together with a tie before jumping into the tank. In a suicide note found with their belongings, neatly arranged on a park bench, the girls blamed two teachers Mary Laila and Philomena Immanuel. Police said they were verifying the contents of the note.
Sonali's father Dayanand Sagar is a cab driver and Priyanka's father Janardhan is an officer in the fire force. The teachers had pulled up the girls for poor performance and lack of attention in class. They had met their parents in this regard.
On Tuesday morning, the two girls are said to have been punished for playing Holi.
Sadashivanagar police have registered a case of abetment to suicide against the teachers. The girls' bodies were sent for post mortem. The school authorities were not reachable for comment.

Sankey Tank in Bangalore is one of the main attractions especially for nature lovers.
Sankey Tank is an artificial tank or lake situated in the western part of Bangalore city. The Sankey tank is located in the middle of the suburbs Vyalikaval, Malleshwaram and Sadashivanagar. The Sankey Tank covers an area of about 37.5 acres of land.
Sankey Tank in Bangalore was built in the year 1882 by Col. Richard Hieram Sankey of the Madras Sappers Regiment, to satisfy the water supply demands of Bangalore. The Sankey Tank was also known as Gandhadhakotikere, for the reason that Sandalwood Depot used to be located close to the lake.
The Sankey Tank includes a park as well as a swimming pool toward its south along with a Forest Department nursery in direction of the north. The Sankey Tank, which was until recently neglected, have been changed from its main purpose as being a reservoir to a park by Bangalore Water supply and Sewerage Board (BWSSB) and Bruhut Bengalooru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP). Covered Walkways, landscaped parks and also an exclusive tank for idol immersion during Ganesh Chaturthi festival has been built.

SANKEY TANK BLUES
Sitting at Sankey Park watching its water-body
Wondering how they carved out this sea
Looking across the bridge at that concrete violin
Please play me a requeim, my old friend
For I don't know when this tank
Will drown to its end
I got the Sankey Tank Blues
We keep paying our dues
After Mud and Miller Tank sank
Who could we thank
So tell me what's news
For I got the Sankey Tank Blues
Gazing at this water-bowl's rippling expanse
Watching the trees and their reflection dance
But what do I see from this aqueous mirror
The leaves on her trees
Rustle and sigh
As they wave goodbye
I got the Sankey Tank Blues
For we keep paying our dues
After Mud and Miller Tank sank
Who could we thank
So tell me what's news
For I got the Hanky Panky Sankey Tank Blues
It's fluttering ducks will have to pack up
Once the water flows out and structures stack up
So much glowing surface reduced to mud
Clouds so dark cover this park
It's twisted fate
This tank will evaporate
Maybe some day, we will find a way
To treat water from the Big Bay
Or we can always charge a fee
For making water out of pee
Or if worse comes to worse
We can empty our purse
And get the water from the blocks
Of the melting Himalayan stocks
I got the Sankey Tank Blues
For we keep paying our dues
After Mud and Miller Tank sank
Who could we thank
So tell me what's news
For I got the Hanky Panky Skanky Ranky Sankey Tank Blues

Snake Tongue
Snake Tongue
Forstbitten and stained with blood
Are the words os peace and love
The golden cross around your neck
Speaks of greed and a crucified wreck
All I hear as you preach
Is blinding fools by threats and leach
All I see in your hands so wise
Is our freedom in demise
There's death in the eyes of the savior, beware of the praise
There's blood on the hands of the Messiah
See through the lies of the snake tongue
We don't need your false salvation
Or your threats of God's damnation
Leave us be is it's peace you need
Or feel the wrath of northern seed
I grasp my hammer of Thor
To spite your king of a peasant whore
The Norse gods is still my creed
