Mumbai, Mar 4: A 26-year-old man from Maharashtra's Solapur district died on Friday after expressing anguish about being born into a farmer's family and drinking a poisonous substance on camera.
Suraj Jadhav, a resident of Magarwadi village, died at a private hospital at Pandharpur, two days after he drank a poisonous substance and recorded a video statement. In a video which went viral on social media, Jadhav is seen unscrewing the cap of a bottle and gulping down its contents.
Before that he says the government doesn't care about farmers, and he does not wish to be born into a farmer's family again.
As per the admission papers of the hospital, Jadhav was also under the influence of alcohol, said a local police official.
Police are looking into the reasons behind his act and whether he was indebted, the official added.
Some reports claimed that disconnection of power supply to his house or farm acted as a trigger, but the official claimed that electricity supply had not been disconnected anywhere in the village in the last few days.
Further probe is on.

Itanagar (PTI): Eleven more bodies were retrieved on Saturday from the deep gorge in Arunachal Pradesh's Anjaw district, where a mini-truck on which 22 labourers from Assam were travelling fell, an official said.
With this, 17 bodies have been recovered from the accident site, Anjaw's deputy commissioner Milo Kojin said.
He said three more bodies will be brought out on Sunday.
The operation, being conducted by a joint team of the NDRF and Army, resumed at 6 am.

"The retrieval process was extremely difficult because of the treacherous terrain, and the gorge is very deep," Kojin said.
The operation was suspended around 4 pm due to low visibility and will be resumed on Sunday morning, he said.
"One person is still missing, and a search operation will be carried out tomorrow," he added.
The accident happened on the evening of December 8, around 40 km from Hayuliang towards Chaglagam in the district. On the evening of December 10, one survivor managed to climb out of the gorge and reach a nearby Border Roads Task Force (BRTF) labour camp, following which the authorities were alerted.
Six bodies were recovered from the gorge on Friday and handed over to their families on Saturday.
