To say the least, it is a very unfortunate incident, for such a young soul to give up on life.
I think the issue might get politicized and the true cause lost in chaos. there are two theories doing rounds.
one - the student was allegedly involved in ragging, accusation denied students.
two - the student was against the political nexus in the college and was victimized because of the same.
I for one am not sure of the truth, I have seen truth being distorted beyond comprehension for the gain of a few.

Mail from MANIT Student
Respected sir,
I am a student of Maulana Azad National Institute of Technology Bhopal (NIT-B). As a student of this college I would like you take some action against the wrongdoers here.
Today a friend of mine namely Rahul Pathak (2nd year, Branch-Bio Informatics, Scholar no. - 071104117) committed suicide. The reason for this was the mental harassment that he was subjected to by the director and the various administrators of this college the name of whom I am enclosing along with this letter. This is not the first time that a student has been exposed to such devious methods and technologies and this would probably not be the last time that some one is forced to take such a course of action if no action is taken against the people who have done this. This originally started as a minor complaint logged against some of the students of 2nd year about a month back and some action was taken against them. The students concerned apologized and the whole matter did not crop up till a day before our end semester examinations. The students concerned were barred from writing the examination and even though they pleaded there case and even begged for forgiveness the director and the administrators still did not see it fit to forgive them. Instead they tortured and harassed them and even went to the extent of physically abusing. They did all this and to an extent in the name of petty politics to get the students to do their biddings. Not being satisfied with all that they did do the director even called up Rahul Pathak’s parents and verbally abused them using slang words. This was the final draw of the straw which depressed the victim completely and is the main reason for what has happened today. This is not how a director or any administrator should act but I can tell you that they have a past record of regularly misbehaving and abusing students and using them as mere pawns to do their bidding. Along with this there is a lot of political strings that are being pulled by some bullies here and I would like you to investigate in that regard also. I hope that my voice would be heard by you and would lead to some action.
