A 28-year-old woman doctor pursuing her MD at the Institute of Mental Health and Hospital in Agra was found dead in her hostel room under suspicious circumstances. Police and hospital officials reported she was discovered unconscious and later declared dead at a medical college. Preliminary findings suggest possible suicide by sleeping pills, with a history of mental distress and a prior suicide attempt. A committee has been formed to investigate, including reviewing past allegations of misbehavior, which were previously unsubstantiated.
