Student Jumps Off Hostel Roof, Family Alleges Drugging

Tonk A disturbing incident has surfaced from Rajasthan’s Tonk district, where a young female student of the renowned Banasthali Vidyapith was seen in a viral video falling from the rooftop of her hostel building. Thankfully, she survived the fall but sustained serious injuries. The video, which has been circulating widely on social media, has shocked many and triggered a deeper investigation into student safety and campus accountability.

The incident reportedly occurred earlier this week and shows the student initially behaving unusually — lying across a corridor wall with her legs elevated and later sitting precariously on the edge of the hostel’s rooftop. Moments later, she jumped. The footage ends with her falling to the ground below.

The girl’s parents, residents of Haryana, have now come forward with serious allegations. They claim that their daughter was given a spiked substance on campus which led to her erratic behavior. According to them, she was also being harassed by fellow students or possibly staff. These allegations are under police investigation, and the family has already filed an FIR. The authorities have not released an official statement regarding the veracity of the claims yet, but they have confirmed that an internal inquiry has been initiated by the institution.

Her parents rushed her home immediately after the fall, where she is currently undergoing treatment in a private hospital. Doctors say she is out of danger but needs time to recover physically and emotionally. The psychological trauma, however, may take much longer to heal.

This incident has raised serious concerns about student welfare and mental health support at universities and educational institutions across the country. While Banasthali Vidyapith is known for its disciplined environment and academic excellence, this case underscores the importance of proactive counseling, peer monitoring, and strong anti-ragging frameworks within campuses.

Students who were present on campus have shared mixed reactions. Some say the girl had shown signs of distress in the days leading up to the incident, while others claim they were completely unaware. Several student organizations and alumni have now demanded transparency and accountability in the investigation process.

The Rajasthan Police is examining the CCTV footage, interviewing staff and students, and conducting forensic checks to determine if any substances were administered to the student against her will. Meanwhile, her parents have urged other families to be cautious and remain in close contact with their children studying away from home.

As of now, no arrests have been made, and college authorities have not responded publicly to the allegations. However, the incident has stirred a much-needed conversation on student mental health, bullying, and the need for trustworthy grievance redressal mechanisms in educational institutions.
