In the ongoing investigation into the death of Nepali student Prakriti Lamsal at KIIT University, six additional university officials appeared before a high-level committee at the State Guest House in Bhubaneswar on February 27, 2025.
The officials summoned include Chief Proctor PK Pattnaik, Senior Hostel Superintendent Sanhita Mishra, Assistant Director Smarika Pati, IC Head Ipsita Satapathy, Administrative Officer Sidharth Ray, and one other staff member.
This development follows earlier proceedings where KIIT founder Achyuta Samanta and other university representatives were questioned regarding the circumstances surrounding Lamsal’s death and the subsequent handling of the situation by the university administration.
