Vijay, who had been employed as an IL-2 officer at Tata Steel, had been embroiled in a serious allegation two months ago, which led to his suspension and an ongoing departmental inquiry. Following his suspension, he was transferred to the Kalinganagar plant.
Eyewitnesses, comprising local auto drivers, revealed that Vijay had been frequenting the area for the past month with intentions of self-harm.

According to the OC, the deceased took his own life at approximately 11 am. The driver of the goods train was the first to witness the incident but was unable to prevent the tragedy as it unfolded rapidly. The officer added that Nirala had been waiting for the train and leaped in front of it as it approached.
