Tragic Mumbai Suicide Case: Mother’s Heart-Wrenching Note After Son’s Death

Mumbai, India – In a deeply tragic incident, 41-year-old Nishant Tripathi was found dead in a Mumbai hotel, reportedly due to harassment by his wife and aunt. His grieving mother, Neelam Chaturvedi, a prominent women’s rights defender, has shared an emotionally devastating note expressing her unbearable loss and anguish.

The Incident: A Tragic End in a Mumbai Hotel

On February 28, Tripathi was discovered hanging in the bathroom of his room at Sahara Hotel, where he had been staying for three days. Before taking this extreme step, he placed a ‘Do Not Disturb’ sign on his door. Concerned hotel staff, after receiving no response for an extended period, entered the room using a master key and found him deceased. Authorities were alerted, and the airport police subsequently sent his body for post-mortem examination.

Legal Action: FIR Filed Against Wife and Aunt

Following the discovery, Mumbai police filed an FIR against Tripathi’s wife, Apoorva Parikh, and his aunt, Prarthana Mishra, under charges of abetment to suicide. While an investigation is underway, no arrests have been made yet. The case has sent shockwaves across social and legal circles, raising concerns over mental health and domestic conflicts.

A Mother’s Heartbreaking Farewell

Neelam Chaturvedi, after performing her son’s last rites alongside her daughter Prachi, shared an emotional Facebook post that resonated with thousands.

“You see me as a living person, but the truth is, I am already dead. Today, I feel like a living corpse. My son, Nishant. He was my everything,” she wrote, expressing her profound grief.

Chaturvedi, known for her dedication to gender justice, revealed the depth of her sorrow, stating, “He was my friend, my companion, and my greatest support. He was supposed to perform my last rites, but today, I performed his.”

Her words reflected the irreversible pain of a mother who had lost not just her child, but also the purpose and strength he gave her.

The Suicide Note: A Final Message of Love and Pain

Tripathi’s final words were left in a password-protected suicide note, uploaded to his company’s website. The note contained a mix of love and sorrow, directed at his wife.

“Hi babe, by the time you read this, I’ll be gone. In my last moments, I could’ve hated you for everything that happened, but I don’t. For this moment, I choose love,” the note read.

However, it also pointed fingers at the alleged perpetrators of his distress. “My mother knows that among all the other struggles I faced, you and Prarthana Mausi (aunt) are also responsible for my death.”

In his final plea, he urged his wife to stay away from his grieving mother. “So, I beg you, don’t approach her now. She’s broken enough. Let her grieve in peace.”

Tripathi’s suicide raises pressing questions about the impact of domestic conflicts on mental health. Experts highlight that cases like these underline the need for stronger social and legal interventions to address family disputes and emotional abuse.

While the investigation continues, this case has sparked discussions on the importance of mental well-being and the consequences of prolonged emotional distress. It serves as a stark reminder of the unseen battles individuals may be fighting behind closed doors.

Conclusion: Seeking Justice and Closure

As Mumbai police delve deeper into the case, Tripathi’s mother and sister continue to mourn their unimaginable loss. For Neelam Chaturvedi, the fight for justice is now deeply personal. The incident has gripped the nation’s attention, bringing the spotlight on domestic conflicts, emotional distress, and the urgent need for support systems to prevent such tragedies in the future.

The coming days will determine whether justice will be served, but for a grieving mother, no legal action can ever replace the son she lost too soon.
