Atul Subhash, a Deputy General Manager at Mahindra and Mahindra in Bengaluru, tragically died by suicide earlier this week.

He left behind a 24-page suicide note that has garnered national attention and sparked a debate on the potential misuse of dowry laws. Atul's brother, Bikash Kumar, in a conversation with The Sunday Guardian, urged the Supreme Court of India to take suo motu cognizance of his brother's case and ensure justice is served. He mentioned that Atul had also written to the President of India seeking justice and reiterated his own appeal to the President, Prime Minister, and Home Minister Amit Shah to act against those responsible for his brother's death. Bikash further requested Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath to take action against the judge named in Atul's suicide note and ensure justice is delivered.

He stated, “In India, every law seems to favor women, not men. My brother fought against this imbalance, but he ultimately left us. My brother did everything for her, but what happened was tragic. If he had confided in me or our father, we would have helped him through this. I appeal to the government and the President of India to ensure justice for my brother if he was right. If not, show me evidence to prove otherwise. There must be a thorough investigation into POLITICAL RELEVANCE the judge mentioned in my brother's suicide note." Atul's father also spoke to the newspaper, alleging that Atul's wife had misused the law against their family. He revealed that Nikita had filed 11 cases against Atul and his family, which left his son mentally exhausted and ultimately drove him to take his own life.

Following Atul's death, his brother, Bikash Kumar, filed a complaint against Atul's wife, Nikita Singhania, along with her mother, Nisha Singhania, brother, Anurag Singhania, and uncle, Sushil Singhania.
