Tragic Suicide at PES University Sparks Outrage and Investigation

The tragic death of a 21-year-old BE (Computer Science) student, Rahul K., at PES University’s Electronics City campus has sparked outrage and raised questions about the institution’s handling of the incident. Allegedly, Rahul jumped to his death from the sixth floor of the building on Tuesday morning. This is the fourth such incident in the past year at PES University, with three of them occurring on the same campus.

Students took to social media to express their grief and frustration, alleging that Rahul’s suicide was triggered by being denied permission to write an exam due to arriving late. However, the university administration refuted these claims, stating that exams continued as scheduled, and they had declared a holiday for students who witnessed the incident. The university assured a thorough investigation into the matter and pledged to provide mental health support to affected students.
