In yet another tragic incident involving an Assamese migrant worker, a youth from Margherita in Tinsukia district died after allegedly falling from the top of an under-construction building in Hyderabad, leaving his family devastated.

The deceased has been identified as Mukesh Sonowal, a resident of Enthem Naga Pathar under Pengeri Police Station in Margherita.

According to family members, Mukesh died on July 7 after reportedly falling from an under-construction building in Hyderabad under circumstances that remain unclear.
