A 23-year-old gold medalist engineer in Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh, died by suicide after failing around 50 government job examinations. Police recovered the body of Anand Kumar from his rented apartment in the Gujaini area under Govind Nagar police station on Friday, July 19, 2026. A five-line note found at the scene repeatedly apologized to his father, stating he had tried 50 times for a government job but could not succeed.
Anand completed his B.Tech in Electrical Engineering in 2024 from a reputed Kanpur college, where he ranked third in the state and received a gold medal from Uttar Pradesh Governor Anandiben Patel on August 13, 2024.
