Adilabad/Hyderabad, Feb. 25 (Maxim News) : A tragic incident at Rajiv Gandhi University of Knowledge Technologies (RGUKT), Basara has sent shockwaves across Telangana after a 19-year-old BTech second-year student, Vasantha, died by suicide in her hostel room.
Vasantha was found hanging in her room at the Yamuna Girls Hostel on campus.
Her sudden death triggered tension within the college premises, with students demanding clarity over the circumstances leading to the incident.
Initially, questions arose over whether academic pressure or family issues drove her to take the extreme step. However, police later revealed a new angle in the case, which intensified unrest among students.
According to preliminary police findings, Vasantha had reportedly been in a relationship with a young man named Ganesh for the past five years.
On Tuesday night, she allegedly received a phone call from him, after which she appeared deeply distressed.
Investigators found that certain phone calls and WhatsApp chats were blocked soon after. In a shocking twist, police discovered that Ganesh had also died by suicide the same night at a hostel in Hyderabad.
Upon learning about Ganesh’s death, Vasantha is suspected to have first attempted self-harm by inflicting injuries on her hand and neck. Later, she allegedly hanged herself in her hostel room.
While police and university authorities stated that Vasantha died due to emotional distress, fellow students expressed suspicion over the injuries found on her body.
Angry students staged a protest and laid siege to the Vice-Chancellor’s chamber, demanding that the administration reveal the truth behind the incident. The situation briefly turned tense on campus.
Police are currently investigating multiple angles, including the content of Ganesh’s last phone call, whether parental opposition to their relationship played a role, and why the couple may have felt pressured to stay apart despite reportedly being relatives.
Authorities have assured that a thorough investigation is underway to determine the exact cause behind the tragic deaths.(Maxim News)
