In the suicide note, he wrote, "I deposited the fees in the college, but the fees were being shown as pending in the students' fee record in the computer system.
I tried to get it rectified several times, but in vain as the same could not be rectified. I was stopped from taking the practical exam. I don't know what my friends will think about me. Everyone please forgive me."
The police have sent the body for a postmortem examination.
A resident of Raebareli, Shubham was a fourth-year B Pharma student at a private college of pharmacy.
His fellow students said that Shubham went to college to take his practicals on Thursday but was denied permission as he had not paid the Rs 22,000 fees for the semester. After this, he returned to his hostel. The teachers sent his friends Prabhat, Akash and Shrikant to call him, but Shubham's room was found locked from inside.
His friends broke the door and saw Shubham hanging from the fan.
The police reached the spot and took the body into custody. They searched the room and a suicide note was found.
Thereafter, the students began making a video and had an argument with the hostel warden, who warned them not to make videos. Later, students gathered outside the hostel and started protesting against the college management. The hostel warden and other officials pacified the students. The students have demanded a fair investigation and strict action against the culprits.
SHO Chinhat, DC Mishra said that police are investigating the case.

Jaggayyapet cops bust chain-snatching gang linked to murder plot
Vijayawada: Police in NTR district have arrested three men in connection with a series of gold-chain thefts, uncovering a broader criminal conspiracy that included plans for a targeted murder. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The arrests followed investigations into multiple chain-snatching incidents reported in Nandigama and Jaggayyapet. During searches, police recovered a stolen motorcycle and three gold chains, weighing a total of 82 grams and valued at approximately Rs 6.5 lakh. The case is linked to an earlier murder in Jaggayyapet's Cheruvu Bazaar, where a temple priest was killed. Investigators identified Bathula Kishore as the primary accused (A1) in that murder. Police now say Kishore himself became the target of a separate murder plot allegedly orchestrated by the priest's brother-in-law, Vemula Tirupathi Rao of Nawabupeta in Penuganchiprolu mandal. According to police, Tirupathi Rao instructed Golla Gopi of Jaggayyapet to eliminate Kishore. Gopi then roped in two former associates — Macha Venkatesh of Kothapeta in Mangalagiri and Pathan Salim Basha of Lakshminarasimha Colony — to carry out the attack. The trio reportedly conducted a night-time reconnaissance at Kishore's residence, but finding him absent, stole his motorcycle and used it to commit a string of chain thefts. They later informed Tirupathi Rao that they intended to proceed with the murder. The thefts were carried out, police said, on the 1st of this month across Nandigama and Jaggayyapet. The trio — Vemula Tirupathi Rao, Macha Venkatesh, and Pathan Salim Basha — were taken into custody on Saturday and questioned, leading to the disclosures outlined by investigators. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now From the suspects, officers recovered the stolen motorcycle and three gold chains — two reported stolen in Nandigama and one taken in Jaggayyapet. The police estimate the total recovered gold at 82 grams, with an approximate market value of Rs 6.5 lakh. Investigators said the recovered property will be produced as evidence in court proceedings. Police records show that Vemula Tirupathi Rao has an FIR registered at the Penuganchiprolu police station. Macha Venkatesh is linked to seven cases registered across local police stations, including one murder case, while Pathan Salim Basha faces nine cases at Tadepalli and Atkur police stations, the officers said. The three suspects are to be produced before the Jaggayyapet court as the legal process unfolds. Jaggayyapeta police said the probe is ongoing and that Golla Gopi remains at large. Further action, including any additional arrests or charges, will follow as the investigation progresses, police said.

Uttarakhand HC orders notice before arrest in fraud cases involving over Rs 19L
Dehradun: Uttarakhand high court (HC) has ruled that a notice must be issued before arresting an accused in a fraud and cheating case involving over Rs 19 lakh. The court directed police to serve a notice under Section 35(3) of the BNSS, which specifies conditions for arrest without a warrant, and to follow the Supreme Court's guidelines in Arnesh Kumar vs State of Bihar, aimed at preventing unnecessary arrests in cases where the maximum punishment is less than seven years. The single bench of Justice Pankaj Purohit delivered the order in connection with the arrest of Pantnagar resident Raghavendra Mishra, accused of defrauding an individual of approximately Rs 19.8 lakh by allegedly impersonating a district magistrate. On July 22, Kashipur resident Jyoti Bisht lodged a complaint at ITI police station in Udham Singh Nagar, alleging that Mishra, along with his wife Preeti Mishra and their daughter Anshika Tiwari, cheated her late husband, Suresh Singh Bisht, of nearly Rs 19.8 lakh. The accused allegedly promised to secure an agency and licence for agricultural fertilisers, arrange jobs for children, and issue certificates. Bisht further claimed they demanded an additional Rs 7 lakh in Jan, threatening that failure to pay would result in forfeiture of the earlier sum. She said the financial and mental strain led her husband to suffer a brain haemorrhage on Jan 15, and he died a week later on Jan 22 at Delhi's Max Hospital. When she sought the return of the money, the accused allegedly abused her and issued death threats. With no action from local police or the SSP despite repeated complaints, she approached the high court. On Friday, while disposing of her petition in line with Arnesh Kumar guidelines, the court clarified that since the maximum punishment under the charges is seven years, issuing a notice before arrest is mandatory.
