It is alleged that the police officer investigating the incident had not included the alleged suicide note written by the student in the case diary. In this regard, DCP Nityanand Jha says that there was no mention of suicide note in the case diary entry of the station, hence it was not included with the case diary.

In fact, Madhya Pradesh student Akanksha Chaturvedi, 18, had allegedly committed suicide in her own room on May 20. Earlier on May 3, Akanksha had given the NEET exam.
Before committing suicide, Akanksha wrote in the suicide note, Mom, Dad, there is no guarantee that I will be able to get good marks in the next NEET. This note was written when NTA had announced that due to the leak of the paper, the NEET exam would be held again. This matter gained momentum and became a national issue. After this Rahul Gandhi posted this incident on social media.
