Akshit Bhukhiya, a 24-year-old student pursuing an MBA at the country’s prestigious Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad (IIM Ahmedabad), hanged himself in his hostel room on September 26. Regarding this suicide incident, Hemant Bhukhiya, the father of the deceased Akshit, has written to the media, asking for justice and blaming the police.
The deceased’s father questioned the police
The father of the deceased said the testimonies of the students who studied with his son were not taken into account and the police did not move their investigation in the right direction. Late Akshit’s father Hemant Bhukhiya, a native of Telangana who studied at the Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad, said, “My son Akshit was in Ahmedabad last year. Studying at Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad.
Akshit is tortured by the management.
Akshit is the coordinator of the Red Brick Summit organized by IIMA every year. Even before this show, my son committed suicide on September 26th. According to my conversations with Akshit’s friends, Akshit was tortured by the IIM management and committed suicide because of it.
Police accused of not accepting confessions
Hemant Bhukhiya further said, I have filed an FIR with the Vastrapur police in Ahmedabad and issued a statement regarding my son’s suicide. Hemant Bhukiya expressed his dissatisfaction with the police, who he said were proceeding very slowly in their investigation. The police did not even take statements from those who studied under Akshit. The CAO has been ordered to take leave and students who want to come out from IIMA and tell the truth are being threatened.
Akshit is among the best in studies
Let us tell you that Akshit, a resident of Telangana, is smart right from his childhood studies. It was his dream to study at the Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad. Ranked 12th, Akshit scored 985 out of 1000 marks in the JEE Mains exam and subsequently received his bachelor’s degree in computer science from NIT Bhopal. After that, he also worked as a software engineer for two years.
Akshit’s father told us that his son Akshit’s dream was to become a businessman by pursuing an MBA from IIM Ahmedabad. But Akshit’s dream was shattered. Maybe someone lost their life due to IIA Ahmedabad, but my house was destroyed. To ensure that such trouble does not happen to anyone, the management of IIM Ahmedabad should be investigated in this matter and justice given to us.
Vastrapur police investigating the case said Akshit committed suicide by hanging. Police did not find any suicide note at the scene. The student’s cell phone and laptop were seized and sent to FSL for investigation. Such efforts are ongoing and will be reported soon. So far, more than 15 people, including faculty, staff and students, have been heard on the matter.
