Bhubaneswar, June 21: A private engineering college lecturer, who was being treated at a private hospital after falling from the roof of the educational institution on June 11, passed away on Friday.

The deceased, identified as Barsha Mishra, was a resident of Keonjhar district. She worked as a junior lecturer in the computer science department of a private engineering college under Tamando police jurisdiction on the outskirts of Bhubaneswar.

Barsha had sustained severe injuries from the fall and was undergoing treatment but unfortunately succumbed to her injuries on Friday.

Barsha’s family has filed a complaint with Tamando police, accusing one of her professors of pushing her from the roof.

According to Barsha’s brother, she had called her mother a few days prior to the incident, informing her that she had been abused by the Head of the Computer Science Department. During this call, the HOD allegedly threw Barsha’s phone when she asked him to speak with her mother. Shortly after this incident, the family received news of her fall from the college roof.

Barsha’s family is now demanding stringent action against the HOD.
