An engineering student at Amity University allegedly hanged himself to death at a rented room outside his college campus area in Noida. The deceased has been identified as Mihir Madhur.
According to reports, Madhur’s roommate Shivam Bansal told the cops that they both had slept after dinner. When Shivam tried to wake up Mihir for coaching classes at around 8 am, he found the latter’s body hanging from a ceiling fan following which he informed the police.
A suicide note recovered from the spot described study-related stress as the reason for Madhur taking the extreme step. The letter, which was written in English, started with an apology to loved ones. Then the deceased went on to explain that he was having a hard time coping with academic pressure, considering that he had recently flunked a subject.
This was the fourth instance of an Amity University student committing suicide since August, 2016.
Madhur’s father, Murlidhar, is an IRS officer posted as a senior chief executive officer with the Indian Railways in Ambala.
A case has been registered at the Noida Sector-20 police station, and an investigation is on.
In November 2016, electrical engineering student Udit Shankar Singh was spotted lying in a pool of blood behind the hostel by students.
Management student GS Krishna was found hanging from the ceiling fan in his hostel room on November 5 last year.
In August, law student Sushant Rohilla (20) allegedly committed suicide at his Delhi home after he was detai-ned from exams due to low attendance.
