Introduction

Motivation

India, the second largest country in world population, possess stable economy, increasing literacy rate, large volume of work-force generator in almost all the fields from low level to high level job positions, exporter of many commodities, sound in technological advancements, is still struggling to enter in the developed nation's pool. Even after 70 years of independence, it still fighting with many deep routed problems like poverty, illiteracy, regional conflicts and so on. All these factors are equally responsible for degrading the growth of any nation. Out of many other factors, committing suicides is one factor which should be taken into consideration and resolved as efficiently as possible. This act not only affects the family members of the victim but also the society as a whole. This shows the emotional quotient of the society and the various pressures the countrymen are facing.

Objective

Through this project, we are trying to help the government agencies and NGOs to look into this situation seriously and identify the target areas where they can introduce educational programs and help people to overcome this situation which leads them to end their life. This will help them answer the questions such as:

  • Where is this situation severe (states of India)
  • What are the reasons behind this action (causes)
  • What are the methods adopted (means), and
  • What are the demographics of the victims (age group, education, social status, etc).

The answers to these questions will also help them understand and formulate the role of society to help them reduce suicide rates in India.
