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.

CM to inaugurate 100-bed Barh sub div hospital soon
Patna: The state-of-the-art building of the sub-divisional hospital will soon commence operations in the Barh area of Patna district, serving residents from more than 300 villages across seven blocks in the region. The facility was constructed by utilising funds to the tune of Rs 19.50 crore. The G+3 building, comprising a ground floor and three upper floors, will have modern medical facilities and equipment. The facility includes a dedicated NICU-PICU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit-Paediatric Intensive Care Unit) for newborn care, along with specialised wards for maternity services and for patients with burn injuries. The addition of a blood collection unit will be a boon for the patients and their families, as they will no longer need to travel to the state capital for blood requirements. Barh sub-divisional magistrate Shubham Kumar, who recently inspected the new building of the SDH, said it will be inaugurated by the CM Nitish Kumar in the next 10 to 15 days. "The new facility will have 11 specialist doctors. It will be a 100-bed hospital with all modern facilities. There are separate operation theatres and units for intensive child care. A blood bank will also be available, and an oxygen plant has been established on the premises," he said. "The oxygen supply has already begun in the child care unit, while the other beds in the hospital will get the direct oxygen supply from the plant. The Bihar Medical Services and Infrastructure Corporation Limited (BMSICL) constructed the new building on the same premises. The existing Barh SDH functions from an old, a deteriorating structure. Once the new facility starts functioning, the old building will be demolished," the SDM told this newspaper on Saturday. The old SDH currently serves as a referral centre due to the lack of specialist physicians. After primary treatment, the patients are referred to the PMCH. Vinay Kumar Chaudhary, deputy superintendent of the hospital, said that after the inauguration of the new building, a blood storage facility will be available. "Demand will also be made to increase the number of ambulances. Almost all the work has been completed except for the electricity connection. Testing will be done after the electricity connection, after which the date of inauguration will be decided. Arrangement for a post-mortem facility has also been made," he said.
