Digital Desk: A 25-year-old female doctor, identified as Sujitha Kashyap, was discovered dead in her rented accommodation at Pithaguri area in Guwahati's Lokhra, as confirmed by the authorities.

The circumstances surrounding Dr. Kashyap's demise are covered in speculation, with her family suggesting a possible connection to a love triangle.

Following the recent election, she confessed to me about her pain, claiming that the stated boy repeatedly brings up things that bother her, causing heightened emotions and impeding her ability to focus on her work."

The family suspects potential mental harassment or blackmail by the partner, though details remain unclear. Dr. Kashyap had recently secured a promising job at Nemcare Hospitals.
