After the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) failure to win over 400 seats in the Lok Sabha Elections 2024 and the Narendra Modi-led BJP's failure to secure a majority, an upset BJP worker from Haryana ended his life by consuming poison.
According to a report by The Times of India, the party worker, identified as Sukhwinder (45), killed himself on Friday night after he came to his in-laws' house in the Hisar district of Haryana.
Sukhwinder's younger brother Jugwinder, who is a resident of the Nanda village in Charkhi Dadri, gave a statement to the police saying that his elder brother had been associated with the BJP for several years and used to work in a transport department in Bhiwandi.
According to TOI, Sukhwinder's decision to end his life was sparked by distress at the Modi-led BJP's failure to win a majority in the LS polls.
Jugwinder said that though their family tried a lot to cheer up Sukhwinder in the aftermath of the polls, he remained quiet most of the time.
Sukhwinder eventually consumed poison on Friday night and was taken to a hospital, where he was declared dead, Jugwinder said.
