A 21-year-old BSc student allegedly committed suicide by jumping from a high-rise tower in a group housing complex here, police officials said on Wednesday.
The incident took place late Tuesday night at the Panchachuli Apartments in Sector 61, under Sector 58 police station area, they said.
According to a police spokesperson, a memo was received at the local police station regarding the hospitalisation of Archit Singh by his family after he fell from the terrace of the society.
