Nirmal: A student of the Rajiv Gandhi University of Knowledge and Technologies (RGUKT) sustained injuries after falling from her hostel building on the campus on Wednesday. The cause of her fall is yet to be ascertained.
Police said Asmitha Begum, from Sangareddy district and studying in the first year of the Pre-University Course at the institution, sustained injuries to her head and other parts of the body when she fell from the building. She was immediately admitted to a hospital in Nizamabad and was later shifted to a hospital in Hyderabad. Her condition is said to be stable.
The police said an inquiry had been initiated into the incident and the cause would be ascertained only after completion of the probe.
Meanwhile, RGUKT officials drew flak for allegedly keeping the incident under wraps. They did not disclose the reason behind the incident till the reports reached here. They were criticised for not providing clarity on whether it was an accident or an alleged suicide attempt by the student. Students demanded that the authorities reveal the exact cause of the incident.
On February 25, R Vasantha (18), a first-year engineering student, allegedly died by suicide on the Basar campus.
