Sullia: In a heart-wrenching incident, a 17-year-old boy identified as Hanseef, took his own life by hanging himself at his residence in Biliyar, Aranthodu village of Sullia taluk. The incident occurred on Tuesday morning, leaving the community in shock and sorrow.

Hanseef, the son of late Musa and Shamira, had been at home alone on Monday night, as his mother was away in Kozhikode for his sister's medical treatment. During this time, he reportedly called his grandmother and expressed his intent to end his life. Tragically, on Tuesday morning, Hanseef's uncle discovered his lifeless body at the house.

Sources indicate that Hanseef's suicide may have been driven by feelings of frustration. It is believed that he was often encouraged by family members to attend school regularly, as he had been skipping classes and showing disinterest in academic pursuits.

New Delhi, Nov 26: RPI(A) leader Ramdas Athawale, a key BJP ally, on Tuesday called for a quick decision on the next chief minister of Maharashtra and suggested that incumbent Eknath Shinde should shift to the Centre as a Union minister.

Addressing a press conference here, Athawale also backed senior BJP leader Devendra Fadnavis as the next chief minister of Maharashtra, contending that the saffron party won the maximum number of seats in the 288-member Assembly and should have the right to the top executive post in the state.

He said a peculiar situation has arisen in Maharashtra where BJP leaders want Fadnavis as the chief minister, while Shiv Sena leaders want Shinde to continue in the post, citing the good work he has done over the last two and a half years.

Athawale, the Union Minister of State for Social Justice and Empowerment, said NCP leader and Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar has declared that he was not in the race for the chief minister.

"We need to resolve this matter, without any further delay. The election results were announced on November 23 and we should have had the oath of the new chief minister on November 26, the Constitution Day," Athawale said.

Backing Fadnavis for the post of chief minister, Athawale said Shinde can become the deputy chief minister or shift to the Centre and join the government led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Athawale said his RPI(A) has a presence in every part of the state, but unfortunately lost the two seats -- Dharavi and Kalina -- offered to it in the recent Maharashtra Assembly elections.

He demanded that an RPI member be made an MLC and a minister in the state government.

The BJP-led Mahayuti won a landslide victory in the Maharashtra Assembly elections winning 235 seats in the 288-member House. The BJP won 132 seats, followed by Shinde-led Shiv Sena (57) and Ajit Pawar-led NCP (41). Smaller parties, who are part of the alliance, won five seats.
