An Assamese migrant worker 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 was 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.

The bereaved family has appealed to the state government and the district administration for urgent assistance in bringing his mortal remains back to his native village for the last rites.
The Pengeri-Bordumsa Regional Students’ Union has also urged the government to facilitate the transportation of the body to Assam and provide adequate compensation to the financially distressed family.
The exact circumstances surrounding Mukesh’s death have not yet been officially confirmed, and further details are awaited.
