IIT Student's Father Demands Professor's Arrest Over Caste Slurs

The parent of a student who studied at an Indian Institute of Technology has made grave accusations regarding his son's death, alleging that the student had faced casteist language while enrolled at the premier engineering institution. According to the father, he received notification of his son's death by suicide over a telephone call while the student was still pursuing his studies at the IIT. The father has since demanded the arrest of a professor, attributing the incident to alleged casteist abuse directed at his son during his time at the institution. The allegations have raised fresh concerns about the campus environment and student welfare at one of India's top technical institutes. The case is expected to prompt further scrutiny into the handling of caste-related incidents at educational institutions across the country.
