The incident occurred in Rajgir town, a major pilgrimage site for both Buddhists and Jains.

Police forced open the room and found all four tourists dead inside.

Rajgir DSP Sunil Kumar Singh said, “At around 9:40 am, the manager of the dharmshala informed the Rajgir police station that some people had arrived from Bengaluru and were staying in a room. A foul smell was emanating from that room."

According to Singh, when the police personnel, in the presence of a magistrate, entered the room, the four were found hanging.

The DSP said mobile phones were recovered from the scene, and the numbers confirmed that the victims were from the southern metropolis.

Singh added that the Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) team in Patna was called for inspection.

He added that efforts were being made to contact the family members of the deceased.
