    Police have assured the traders that the culprits would be nabbed by Friday.

    An FIR has been lodged against the duo following a complaint by traders, Koshal Soni, Madhusudan, and Himanshu, police said.

    Soni is a local BJP leader and former panchayat samiti member.

    Police personnel in large numbers have been deployed in the town to maintain law and order and prevent any untoward incident, officials said.

    The traders accompanied by activists of Hindu organisations also submitted a memorandum to the SDM demanding the immediate arrest of the accused.

    According to police, Shakeel and Atique have a criminal background.

    Atique has three cases, including attempt to murder and Arms Act, lodged against him, Deputy Superintendent of Police Rameshwar Parihar said.

    Several police teams are engaged to trace the accused, they said.

    Srinivasa Rao said people should teach a befitting lesson to those spreading rumours. The actor termed the rumours about his death “unfortunate”.

    “At a time when I am busy with Ugadi festival tomorrow, the series of phone calls was disturbing. If there was some elderly person in my place, his heart would have stopped beating,” he said.

    “If they want popularity or money, there are many ways to earn it but spreading such rumours is not proper,” he said.

    Another Kota coaching student commits suicide, says ‘Sorry mom’ in suicide note

    Jaipur: Another coaching student in Rajasthan’s Kota committed suicide by hanging himself, police said on Friday.

    The incident took place in Kunhadi area of the city, which is a hub for students preparing for various competitive examinations, on Wednesday night.

    Abhishek, 17, a resident of UP’s Badaun, UP, was living in a Kota hostel for the last two years and was preparing for the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET). He was not going to coaching for some time but was taking online classes from the hostel itself.

    Police officials said that it was reported at 9 p.m. on Thursday that a student was not opening a room in Datar Residency for nearly 24 hours.

    “We went to the spot and broke the door of the room. The student was found hanging from a noose. A suicide note has been found from the room.”

    In the suicide note, Abhishek wrote: “I am apologising to you. I came to Kota on my own free will. No one pressurised me. Sorry Didi, Mummy Sorry Bhai, Sorry friends. Forgive me, I have lost. That’s why I want to die.”

    On receiving information about Abhishek’s suicide, father Aram Singh reached Kota on Friday morning. He said parents know how they raise children and teach them, but the coaching institutes “discriminate”.

    “That’s why children are committing suicide. Why is such a situation arising? What is the atmosphere that children are committing suicide,” he questioned.

    Aram Singh said that there is pressure from coaching institutes but there is no pressure from parents. “My son never told that he was upset. He used to keep stress to himself.

    “Had I known that he will commit suicide, I would have taken it from here before. I say that the government should pay attention. The government should formulate a policy, so that the incident of suicide in our society is stopped.”

    Five suicide cases have come to fore in just last two months in Kota.
