Bhopal: A 25-year-old driver working with Bhopal Municipal Corporation committed suicide as he failed to get the loan he was promised by a person in August 2020.

Police had begun a probe into the incident. They registered the case against accused under Section 306 (abetting suicide) of IPC in this connection on Saturday.
