Nihar Mukherjee is Mamata Banerjee’s maternal cousin and a regional Trinamool leader.
The body has been sent for an autopsy and an investigation into her death has begun. Sources close to the family said the young woman had been battling depression for the past few years and was receiving medical treatment.
She was among those who lost their job – as a non-teaching staff member of the Bolpur Upper Primary School – in March 2023 after the Supreme Court scrapped recruitment orders for teachers in state government-aided schools in the alleged ‘cash-for-jobs’ case. Nearly 26,000 teaching and non-teaching staffers were dismissed.
The appointments were struck down by the Calcutta High Court and the Supreme Court then upheld that order.
