According to his wife, Abhishek remained troubled by work pressure and the behaviour of officials. She also alleged that he was denied training opportunities and was threatened over his job. Facts related to the suicide note and diary are also being examined in the case. Police and the railway administration have started an investigation. Evidence has been collected from the scene. At present, the actual cause of death is not clear. The full situation will emerge only after the post-mortem report and the findings of the investigation.
