The tragic event unfolded due to the intense societal pressure faced by the couple, whose love story was not accepted by their families and community.
Identified as Nitesh Mund and a minor girl, the duo reportedly succumbed to the strain of rejection. Found tied with a gamucha, their act appears to have stemmed from the crushing weight of societal disapproval. Authorities have launched an investigation to understand the circumstances surrounding this tragedy.
This incident sheds light on the pressing issue of caste-based discrimination, calling for introspection and change in societal attitudes. The case remains under police investigation.
