  • Angry scenes were witnessed in Nepal's Parliament on Tuesday when lawmakers raised concerns over the death of Nepali national Prakriti Lamsal, a third-year computer science student in KIIT, Odisha, demanding diplomatic efforts for proper security.

The article from Firstpost discusses the tragic suicide of a 21-year-old Nepalese student at the Kalinga Institute of Industrial Technology (KIIT) in Bhubaneswar, Odisha, which has led to significant diplomatic tensions between Nepal and India. Following the incident, Nepal's Ambassador to India, Shankar Prasad Sharma, visited the site and expressed concerns over the safety of Nepalese students in India. He suggested that if such incidents continue, Nepal might consider stopping students from going to India for education. The student, who was pursuing a Bachelor of Technology, reportedly took his own life due to academic pressure. This event has sparked a broader conversation about the welfare and security of international students in Indian educational institutions, with calls for better support systems and mental health resources. The article also touches on the historical educational ties between Nepal and India, highlighting the potential impact of such incidents on future educational exchanges.
