A tragic incident has been reported from NIMS University within the Chandwaji police station jurisdiction of Jaipur district, where an 18-year-old first-year B.Tech student lost his life after falling from the 15th floor of the campus hostel. The deceased student has been identified as Aditya Tiwari, a native of Lucknow in Uttar Pradesh. The sudden incident late Tuesday evening triggered widespread panic among residents of Garnec Hostel, while local police authorities have initiated a comprehensive investigation to determine the circumstances leading to his death.
Sequence of Events at Garnec Hostel
According to available details, Aditya Tiwari was residing in Garnec Hostel alongside his roommates Mayank Yadav and Ankit Singh. At the time of the incident on Tuesday late evening, neither of his roommates was present inside the room, as both had gone out for a walk outside the college premises. Taking advantage of being alone, Aditya went to the 15th floor of the hostel building and jumped off. The impact of the plunge from such a high altitude caused him to succumb to his injuries instantly at the spot, causing immediate distress across the student housing facility.
Two-Day Absence from Classes and Locked Mobile Device
Upon receiving information about the tragedy, a team from the Chandwaji police station arrived at the scene to examine the location and secure evidence. During the preliminary inspection, police recovered Aditya's mobile phone from the site. However, because the smartphone is protected by a screen lock, investigators have not yet been able to examine its contents, call history, or text messages. Furthermore, initial police inquiries revealed that Aditya had not attended his B.Tech classes for the past two days, prompting officers to focus on analyzing his recent digital footprint and activities once the device is unlocked.
Body Preserved in Mortuary Awaiting Family Arrival
Providing details on the ongoing inquiry, Chandwaji Station House Officer Rajbeer Singh confirmed that information regarding a student jumping from the hostel's 15th floor was received late Tuesday evening. The police have informed Aditya's family members in Lucknow regarding the tragic event. The post-mortem examination and formal legal proceedings will be conducted following the arrival of his parents and relatives in Jaipur. In the interim, Aditya's body has been placed in the mortuary at NIMS Hospital. Investigators are actively questioning fellow hostel residents and classmates to gain insights into his mental well-being and personal circumstances over recent days.
