Bengaluru, Mar 18: A Dalit student of National Law School of India University (NLSIU) has allegedly committed suicide by hanging himself from the ceiling of hostel room near Jnanabharati.

Kanishk Bharti, 22, was staying at room no. 3 on the first floor of the hostel complex. Police suspect the Uttar Pradesh youth might have taken the extreme step on Thursday as his body was in a decomposed stage. He was an undergraduate student at the premier law school.

The incident came to light around 5pm on Saturday, when his parents called his friends at the hostel and requested them to look at Kanishk as he was not responding to their calls since Thursday. When Kanishk’s hostel mates rushed to his room, bad odour was emanating from the room. They peeped through the room window and found his body hanging. They informed the hostel management, who alerted jurisdictional Jnanabharati police.

Police rushed to the spot and brought down the body. It was hanging from the ceiling fan by a rope.

The body was shifted to Victoria Hospital and his parents in Uttar Pradesh were informed about the death. His relatives including his father, Veerendra Bharti, rushed to the city by Sunday morning. Kanishk’s body was handed over to his parents after the postmortem.

Police said they did not find any suicide note in his room. They said they are yet to know the reason for the student taking the extreme step.
