Days after a 14-year-old boy allegedly died by suicide in Kerela's Tripunithura, his mother made a post on social media on Sunday in which she shared a video. The social media post by Rajni PM, Mihir Ahmmed's mother, said, "The minds of those who are spreading such things related to my son's death, with such captions, must be extremely cruel" The post showed an animated character jumping off a cliff with the caption: "Mihir on his way to jump off the 26th floor after getting called a poppyhead" The ninth grader allegedly jumped from the 26th floor of his residential flat allegedly due to bullying he endured at school. Rajna has filed a formal complaint with the Chief Minister and the state police chief, accusing the school of turning a blind eye to the bullying that led to her son's death.
Wayanad MP Priyanka Gandhi expressed her anger and sorrow over the case, voicing strong support for Mihir's family and their fight for justice. Reading the letter written by Mihir’s mother is heartbreaking, Priyanka Gandhi said in a post on X. "As mothers, all we wish for, is the safety and happiness of our children.
I cannot even imagine the pain and anger she must feel to know that her child was tortured and hounded in the way she has described. Her fight for justice is an act of bravery and fortitude." She further said that the school authorities should have the courage to acknowledge the reality of this crime, accept responsibility and not attempt to cover it up.
"It is their duty, and the duty of the state government to do all they can to provide justice for Mihir," she said. How can we allow children to be subjected to this kind of cruelty and criminality and do nothing? She asked. " It’s about time strict laws are brought in to prevent ragging and protect young people who deserve safety and support as they build their futures.
" "My heart goes out to you Rajna, I stand with you in your fight for justice," she said..
