A JNU student allegedly committed suicide Friday by hanging himself from a ceiling fan in a study room of the university, police said.

Police and crime team are at the spot and further details are awaited.

A junior research fellow at JNU posted a reaction to the incident saying, "It's very shocking and frustrating to hear that a JNU student from M.A. English department has committed suicide in SLL&CS, JNU. In this time of sorrow and grief, we as JNUites firmly stand physically and emotionally with the family and friends of the victim."
