Kolkata, May 14, 2025 – The sudden and tragic death of Pritam Majumdar, son of Rinku Majumdar-newly married to BJP leader Dilip Ghosh-has been provisionally attributed to acute hemorrhagic pancreatitis, according to a preliminary post-mortem report.
Pritam Majumdar, who was the son of Rinku Majumdar from her first marriage, was found dead under mysterious circumstances at his residence in New Town, Kolkata, on Tuesday. The incident prompted widespread speculation and rumors, including suggestions of suicide. However, the initial findings from the post-mortem, conducted at R.G. Kar Medical College and Hospital, point towards acute hemorrhagic pancreatitis as the most likely cause.
Understanding Acute Hemorrhagic Pancreatitis
Acute hemorrhagic pancreatitis is a severe and rare form of pancreatitis characterized by intense inflammation, tissue damage, and bleeding in and around the pancreas. This condition arises when pancreatic enzymes are inappropriately activated within the ducts, causing destruction of tissue and blood vessels.
Medical sources indicate that Pritam was on multiple medications for existing health complications, which could have contributed to his condition. Further details are expected as a comprehensive post-mortem report is still pending.
Background and Reactions
Dilip Ghosh, former National Vice-President of the BJP and ex-West Bengal party President, married Rinku Majumdar just last month. Pritam, who worked in the Information Technology Enabled Services (ITeS) sector at Salt Lake’s IT hub, had expressed happiness for his mother’s new beginning but did not attend the wedding, citing his absence from Kolkata at the time.
The family and authorities await the final post-mortem analysis to clarify all circumstances surrounding the untimely death.
