Meanwhile, a friend of Dongre contacted him on his mobile phone but didn't receive any response, following which he went to Dongre's flat.
"As the door was locked from inside and Dongre was not responding, the friend contacted the police. Police personnel broke open the door and found Dongre lying on the floor. He was taken to a hospital where doctors declared him dead.
Dongre's wife works in a company in Balaghat in neighbouring Madhya Pradesh. The couple had minor children, the official added.
