Anjani Kumar Mishra, a technical assistant with the Central Bureau of Communication in Gumla district, Jharkhand, alleged that his 21-year-old son, Lakshya Mishra, was murdered at a university in Bengaluru, Karnataka. Lakshya died on April 7 after reportedly falling from the ninth floor of a hostel building. Mishra visited the scene and noted inconsistencies, such as disturbed bedding and insufficient blood at the fall site, which he believes contradict the university's claim of suicide. He suspects foul play, mentioning an unusual gathering of students prior to the incident. Jharkhand's minister, Dipika Pandey Singh, expressed concern over the case and urged Karnataka's Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and Deputy Chief Minister D K Shivakumar to ensure a thorough investigation.
