I find it unfortunate and I am sure any sane person will definitely will also find it unfortunate. Three suicides and one failed attempt of suicide. These are not the figures of some jail in India. It’s the reality of the premier research institute of India. And most unfortunate instead of looking into the severity of the matter and taking steps to avoid any repetition of such events the answer is its student’s personal and family problems and institute has nothing to do with it. But then these people don’t realize one thing hearting oneself to a level to commit suicide is the most extreme step a human being can take. I agree to the fact that people can have their own problems but if the environment around you is good and encouraging then you live with some hope. So, the reasoning given by the institute falls week. Now coming to the measures taken to this mounting problem a full time psychologist for counseling but lack of a proactive system to identify such cases, worthless student council, a faculty community which tries to find the most comfortable position for them. One thing I learnt form this campus you can blame the world and sleep in your bed with a notion in the mind you are always correct and the other person is always wrong.
Can’t institute take more proactive stand in being little more sympathetic towards the student community, instead of looking at them as slaves and blaming them always for everything?
