The tragic discovery of DU student Sneha Debnath's body in the Yamuna River has left the community in shock and raised urgent questions about student safety in Delhi.
Sneha Debnath, a bright student of Delhi University, had gone missing several days ago under mysterious circumstances. Her sudden disappearance had sparked an intense search effort, involving police and volunteers across the city. Unfortunately, the search ended in heartbreak when her body was recovered from the Yamuna River earlier today.
The authorities are currently investigating the case to determine the cause of death, although initial reports suggest foul play cannot be ruled out. Her family, devastated by the loss, is demanding a thorough inquiry and justice for their daughter.
This case has triggered widespread outrage on social media and in student communities, with many questioning the security and safety protocols in place for young women in Delhi. DU students have planned a candlelight vigil in her memory and are calling for improved surveillance and faster police action in missing persons cases.
Sneha’s friends describe her as warm-hearted, ambitious, and always eager to help others. Her tragic end has sent ripples through the university and beyond, igniting a much-needed dialogue around the safety of students, particularly women, in metropolitan
cities.
