Tripura: 19-Year-Old Student Found Hanging in Agartala

Authorities reported that a 19-year-old student from ICFAI University was found hanging at her rented residence in Ramnagar, Agartala.
Dipannita Das, a 19-year-old from Shantirbazar in South Tripura, was identified as the deceased.

According to the police, Das was in her second semester of college. On Monday night, when the police and her friends entered her apartment, they found her hanging, making the tragedy known to the public.

“We received information that a university student wasn’t answering the door for a long time. The student was not even responding to repeated calls from her friends. So we reached the spot and in her presence of her friends, we forced the door open and found her hanging from the ceiling fan,” an official stated.

For the past six months, Dipannita had been living at this residence, occasionally sharing a room with her mother. Her sudden death surprised many in her social circle, as she was known for her calm and polite demeanor among her peers. According to the police, several individuals expressed confusion about the reasons behind her decision to take her own life.

The West PS Women’s unit in Agartala is leading the local police’s investigation into the matter.

Authorities mentioned that they have not yet determined the likely reason for her death by suicide.
“There are no leads yet. We haven’t landed any piece of evidence from her room that would shed light on what may have prompted her to take her own life. However, the investigation is underway,” the officer stated.

According to her college acquaintances, she showed no signs of distress that would have indicated suicidal tendencies.

The institution stated that it stands by all those impacted during this somber period and will issue an official statement regarding the student’s passing.
