The deceased is a resident of the Alwar district of Rajasthan. His daughters are aged six and three.

In his complaint to the police, the victim’s father said his son was in Narnaul for his daughter’s medical examination.

The news regarding his suicide reached him in the evening. “We rushed to the spot and found the bodies of my son and granddaughters lying in a pool of blood in the middle of the rail track. The police also recovered a suicide note from my son’s pocket in which he held the owner of a photo studio responsible for his death,” he added.
