Kanpur:
A 31-year-old M.Tech second year student allegedly hanged himself from the ceiling fan in his hostel room at the Indian Institute of Technology-Kanpur, police said on Thursday.
The motive was not immediately clear but a police official said the student had been “temporarily” removed from the course after he failed three exam papers. However, students are usually allowed to retake these exams.
The body of Vikas Kumar Meena, a resident of Meerut, was found hanging in his room on Wednesday, the police said.
