IIT-Bombay student death: Parents allege he faced casteist abuse, demand arrest of faculty member
Parents of 22-year-old IIT Bombay student Sahil Wakode allege he faced caste-based harassment and was tortured, demanding arrest of a faculty member. They say he reported slurs and abuse before his death. The case has drawn attention to discrimination at the institute, and authorities are being asked to investigate. The parents visited the campus earlier this month, saying their son told them he was being tortured.
