‘Mujhse nahi ho paya, I’m sorry, papa’: MBBS student dies by suicide in hostel room in Chhattisgarh
Korba (PTI): A first-year MBBS student died by suicide in his hostel room on the premises of the Government Medical College in Chhattisgarh’s Korba city on Saturday, the police said.
A suicide note, purportedly written by him, was found at the spot. It read, “Mujhse nahi ho paya, I am sorry, papa (I couldn’t do it, I am sorry, papa)", they said.
Himanshu Kashyap, 24, was found hanging in his hostel room on the college campus within the jurisdiction of the Civil Lines police station, City Superintendent of Police Bhushan Ekka said.
Citing preliminary information, the official said when Kashyap did not show up for his examination in the morning, his classmates went to his room, only to find the door locked from inside.
After repeated attempts to open it failed, they broke the door and discovered his body hanging, he said.
The police subsequently reached the spot and sent the body for post-mortem. A suicide note was also recovered from the room, he said.
The official said an accidental death report has been registered and a probe is underway.
Dean of the college Dr KK Sahare said, Kashyap had failed in his 2024 first-year examinations and was reappearing this year.
“It appears he took the extreme step due to the pressure of not performing well in the exams,” he said.

According to the family, the room in which Anjali was found was locked from the inside. The door was later forcibly opened by a neighbour and her sister with the help of a crowbar.
Her body was found lying on the bed inside the room, police said.
Preliminary inquiry revealed that Anjali had allegedly hanged herself using a piece of cloth tied to the ceiling fan.
It is suspected that the noose eventually might have loosened or torn off, resulting in her being found lying on the bed.
Family members informed the police that Anjali was a final-year student of a librarian science course from Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU). About a week ago, her final-year examination results were declared, and she had failed, following which she had been under depression, they said.
The family has not raised any allegation of foul play, police said, adding that no suicide note or external injury marks were found on the body during the initial inspection.
Inquest proceedings have been initiated in the matter as per the law. The body has been sent for post-mortem examination to ascertain the exact cause of death, and further investigation is underway, police added.
