A first-year student of Malaviya National Institute of Technology (MNIT) here allegedly committed suicide by jumping from the sixth floor of the college hostel, police said on Monday.

A suicide note was found at the spot but police did not divulge the details.

Aditya Poonia, Assistant Commissioner of Police, Malviya Nagar, said Divya Raj (21), a first-year student of Bachelor of Architecture at MNIT and a resident of Pali district, jumped from the sixth floor of the college hostel on Sunday night.

“The body has been shifted to the mortuary of Jaipuria hospital for post-mortem examination,” he said.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
