It so happened that the medico, who was living with his parents during the lockdown decided to visit the city to pay a Darshan to the Dagduseth Ganpati during the occasion of Ganesh pooja. At the temple, the medico asked his father to pose for him in front of the idol as he wanted to click a picture of his father. However, due to the huge crowd, the medico suddenly blended into the gathering and disappeared.
His father also mentioned that his son was suffering from depression and he was seriously concerned regarding his final year results as he could not clear his final year exams. The concerned father suspected that the medico was feeling tremendous pressure and was unwilling to pursue medicine as a profession.
The police have confirmed that they had to go through 50 CCTV camera footages to trace the whereabouts of the medico.
