SANTINIKETAN : A third-year student of Visva-Bharati 's Silpa-Sadana allegedly died by suicide on Thursday.
According to university sources, Anamika Singh (24), who hailed from Varanasi, was found in critical condition in her Amrapali hostel room on Thursday evening. She was rushed to the varsity hospital and later shifted to Bolpur Subdivisional Hospital, where doctors declared her dead.
VB registrar Ashok Mahato said though prima facie it appeared to be a case of suicide, the cause of death could be confirmed only after a postmortem and police investigation.
Additional police superintendent Rana Mukherjee said: "As soon as we got the information, our officers reached the hostel following a conversation with university officials. We have sealed the room so evidence can't be tampered with."
The girl's mother said: "My daughter was forced to die by suicide, there was pressure on her." She, however, didn't elaborate.
Silpa-Sadana is a department under Palli Samgathana Vibhaga at Sriniketan for developing cottage industries and craft.
