Following the incident, the UOL administration suspended all on-campus activities and shifted to online classes effective Tuesday, January 6. The university is reportedly considering installing safety fences on elevated floors to prevent future tragedies. This incident marks the second such tragedy in less than three weeks; on December 19, 2025, another pharmacy student died after jumping from the fourth floor, allegedly due to academic pressure and attendance issues. While a formal FIR has not yet been filed, police are awaiting the student’s recovery and her parents’ consent to proceed with a detailed investigation.
