The Haryana Human Rights Commission (HHRC) has initiated an inquiry into the alarming trend of four student suicides at the National Institute of Technology (NIT) Kurukshetra, Haryana, India, since February 2023. The commission's investigation follows a report by Hindustan Times, which highlighted serious concerns regarding student safety and mental health support at the institution. The first suicide occurred on February 16, involving a 19-year-old computer science student, followed by three more tragic incidents, culminating in the death of a 20-year-old AI and data science student on April 16. This latest event triggered protests among students, who criticized the administration's response, including an order to vacate hostels and declare holidays for students. The HHRC has requested detailed reports from the NIT director, deputy commissioner, and superintendent of police regarding the circumstances surrounding the deaths, mental health resources available, and actions taken by the district administration. The inquiry also notes potential deficiencies in the institution's mental health support systems, raising concerns under Article 21 of the Indian Constitution, which guarantees the right to life and dignity. The situation has garnered attention from the Union education ministry, which has sent teams to investigate the administrative and operational issues at NIT Kurukshetra.
