A 35-year-old man committed suicide by jumping in front of a speeding train in Masuri area and left behind a suicide note requesting Narendra Modi to take care of his daughter after his death, police said today.
The deceased has been identified as Om Prakash Tiwari, who lived with his family in Loni area of Ghaziabad.
The suicide note recovered from his possession says, "Dear Narendra Modi Ji, you are going to become the Prime Minister of India. I am committing suicide due to financial problem. I request you to take care of my daughter after my death."
Om Prakash has also stated in his one-page suicide note that nobody was responsible for his death.
"We have got to know that Om Prakash's family had been facing financial problem for the past few years following which he took such extreme step last night," said a senior police officer.
His body has been sent for post mortem and further investigations are on, police said.
