IIM Ahmedabad student dies by suicide at campus hostel

A tragic incident unfolded at the Indian Institute of Management (IIM) Ahmedabad this afternoon, when a student was found dead in his hostel room.

Business News

The victim, identified as 23-year-old Akshith Bhukya from Telangana, was pursuing an MBA (Masters of Business Administration) at the prestigious institute.

Soon after the police was informed of the incident around 3.45 pm, the Vastrapur police dispatched a team to the scene to investigate.

No suicide note was found in the room, and the authorities have yet to confirm the motive behind the tragic act.

The incident occurred in the newly constructed building on the IIM campus.

Fellow students at the spot reportedly recall hearing cries for help coming from the hostel, with someone shouting “Akshith has hanged himself in his room.”

Talking about the incident, Vastrapur in-charge Police Inspector V D Mori stated, “We recovered Akshith’s mobile phone and laptop, and have sent it for forensic analysis. We have also conducted preliminary conversations with his friends, but no concrete information has emerged so far.”

Tragic end to a promising life

Akshith was the lead coordinator for the upcoming Red Brick Summit 2024, one of IIM Ahmedabad’s flagship events.

Initial investigation suggests that he may have been under stress related to his responsibilities, although the exact cause of the suicide remains unclear.

Following the incident, IIM Ahmedabad announced that they have cancelled the Red Brick Summit event.

The institute also shared the news on their official social media platforms.

Students were reportedly busy with event preparations at the time of the incident.

In an official statement regarding this incident, IIM Ahmedabad said, ”The institute is deeply grieved to share the news about the untimely demise of our second-year MBA student Akshith Bhukya in his room on the afternoon of September 26, 2024, Thursday. We pray for the departed soul and extend our heartfelt condolences to his family.”

“The Institute assures and is fully committed to providing all support to the bereaved members of Akshith’s family and the IIMA community at large,” it stated further.
