MBA student dies after jumping from Poornima University building
A 23-year-old MBA student, Yashasvi Rohilla, took her own life by jumping from the sixth floor of Poornima University in Jaipur on Saturday morning, according to police investigations. Rohilla, a second-year MBA student and resident of Gurjar Ki Thadi area, had secured a campus placement in a company in September, reported university officials.
Dean of Student Welfare, Rakesh Gupta, stated that Rohilla was a consistent student who regularly attended classes. The incident occurred when Rohilla was in her third-semester mid-term examinations. CCTV footage showed Rohilla speaking on the phone for about six minutes before ascending the stairs and jumping. Rohilla's friends attempted to stop her from climbing the stairs, but she had already jumped.
The university has turned over Rohilla's cellphone and bag to the police for further examination. The SHO of Shivdaspura police station, Rakesh Gautam, revealed that the locked cellphone would be sent to the cyber cell for analysis. Rohilla's body has been taken to the hospital and is in the mortuary awaiting postmortem examination.
Rohilla's family members have arrived, but details about the case are not yet available. Rohilla is survived by her mother, as her father had passed away. Mental health helplines are available for those struggling, and calls are confidential.
