"Police take all such cases seriously and an investigation is being done as per the law," Bhubaneswar's DCP Prateek Singh told PTI.

The report of the post-mortem examination was awaited, said Avimanyu Das, the inspector in charge of the Khandagiri police station.

"It is not a case of ragging as all in the hostel were first-year students. The deceased student's roommates were also from Jharkhand. We are also investigating the allegations of the deceased student's parents," he said.

An official of the ITER College said that as soon as the student was found lying on the floor, the medical team on the campus shifted him to the hospital.

"At the same time, the matter was informed to the police. The post-mortem examination was carried out at AIIMS-Bhubaneswar. It seems to be a case of suicide," he said.
