    As per the news report, she is a resident of Puttur in Ambagilu, so she was not going to her house, because Puttur is towards Udupi from Santekatte and Bridge is on the way to Brahmavar and it is 15 mins walk from Santekatte bus stop. So her intention was already there to commit suicide before coming to the bridge and probably was talking to a person who was responsible for her situation. All police needs to check is the call records of her mobile number.

    Condolences to the parents. Obviously it is a love break. All youngsters should understand that most of the cases are infatuation not love. The experienced elders in the society have a great role to make this understand to youngsters. If you love a person you should be ready to do anything for him or her other than taking you life. You can do this if you are alive. Parents need to talk to their children and discuss about these sort of relations.

    It is sad that suicides are common these days. As of now one may not know the reason for Chaitra's attempted suicide but inquiries will reveal the case for such an attempt. It is time that professional councilors are posted at different to advise and guide people.
