    Sad.Since we dont know the reason behind we need not create or suspect reasons of his death.Quite possible his own private life.Heartfelt sympathys to his family.May his soul rest in peace.Whether in foreign or inland ,when one is worried or depressed,should not hesitate to take some help from outside,when you cant comeout of your prolems.But not decide to end life self.Even friends too can help when known one is suffering with depression or need help.

    Families in India whose relatives working abroad / away must tell them that they dont expect anything other than their good health and life. Instead most of us expect their earnings and create panic in them about loosing their job. We should not show our dependency on them instead advice them not to worry about loosing their job

    Due to the present lockdown and pessimistic economic environment the expats in gulf are becoming so depressive as nobody there here to share their suffering. The Indian govt must have some compassionate counseling assurance for the poor non residents in gulf.
