A dramatic incident unfolded in Gumla, Jharkhand, where a man, Ritesh Kumar Singh, climbed a 100-foot mobile tower and threatened to commit suicide. The drastic action followed a disagreement with his family over property distribution. The police responded to the scene, attempting to persuade him to come down for more than three hours. After the tense standoff, Singh was brought down, although he sustained minor injuries. The event highlights the severity of the family dispute that involved an altercation with his wife prior to the tower climb. This incident is reminiscent of a similar event in 2023 in Ranchi where a man threatened suicide from a high-tension power tower, underscoring the emotional distress associated with family conflicts.
