Medical dialogues team had earlier reported that a 20-year-old NEET-UG aspirant from Uttar Pradesh allegedly committed suicide by hanging himself in his paying guest (PG) accommodation in Dadabadi, Kota.
Although the exact reason for his step is unclear, the initial findings of the police investigation suggest that he had been battling a neurological disorder and was receiving treatment for it.
The incident occurred Wednesday night after the student returned to his room after attending coaching classes at around 1 pm. However, he failed to respond to knocks on the door of his room and calls from family members following which the caretaker of the PG alerted the police. After police arrived at the scene, they entered the room and found his body hanging from the ceiling.
