In a profoundly saddening event, a third-year LLB student at the National Law University Delhi (NLU Delhi) tragically ended her life on Monday. The student, originally from Chennai, was discovered hanging in her hostel room. A suicide note found at the scene revealed her remorse and apologies to her parents, as well as her decision to take this irreversible step without attributing blame to anyone.
The note highlighted that the student had been grappling with intense academic pressure and had previously voiced her struggles and suicidal thoughts to her roommates in April of this year. The ongoing investigation by the police is seeking to uncover more details surrounding the circumstances of her death.
The student’s body has been sent for a post-mortem examination, and her parents are expected to arrive in Delhi shortly. NLU Delhi has expressed profound grief over the loss of one of its students and has extended heartfelt condolences to her family and friends during this incredibly difficult time.
This tragic incident underscores the urgent need for increased mental health support and awareness, particularly for students facing significant academic pressures. It is a stark reminder of the importance of creating a supportive environment and providing resources for those in distress.
If you or someone you know is struggling with suicidal thoughts, it is crucial to seek help immediately. There are numerous resources available, including helplines and counseling services, designed to offer support and guidance in times of crisis. Reaching out for help is a vital step in navigating through challenging moments.
