TW: Suicide Amidst the pandemic, it has become increasingly difficult for all of us to keep our mental health intact. Especially in India, which ranks 144 out of 156 nations is near the of the league of countries in the World Happiness Report 2020, alongside Afghanistan, South Sudan and Yemen, hate mongers are omnipresent.

What’s happening in India? Students are dying by suicide? Students are supposed to be the future of India and the world. What has led to this tragedy from happening? Is there something fundamentally wrong at the grassroots level or with our education system? There is definitely something and we need to know so that we can work towards reducing the suicide rate. The reasons of suicides are varying: failure in examinations, pressure of examinations, problems in career, unemployment etc.
