Officials confirmed that the student’s body was handed over to his family at 4:30 a.m. today. After the teenager’s death, a large crowd gathered at the hospital and began protesting against the Udaipur stabbing case. Initially, the family refused to accept the body, demanding the harshest punishment for the accused, a government job for a family member, and Rs 1 crore in compensation. After negotiations, an agreement was reached for Rs 51 lakh in compensation and a contractual job for a family member. Subsequently, the post-mortem was conducted.

The 15-year-old student, Devraj, succumbed to his injuries on Monday afternoon. His classmate attacked him over a minor dispute involving a notebook on August 16.

The incident sparked violence, leading to vehicle fires and vandalism at a shopping mall.

CM Sharma oversees the situation and has dispatched a team of doctors to Udaipur. Despite their efforts, the teenager could not be saved. State Minister Jawahar Singh Bedham expressed condolences, stating, “Despite all efforts by the state government, the child could not be saved. I urge everyone to maintain peace.
