    Very sad,and tragic to the family.Sometime children dont confine few things to parents.There are situations in school,where other children start defaming which students cant bear anymore.If only he would confine his problems to someone could have helped him,May his soul rest in peace.Heartfelt sympathys to family.

    boy, your parents need your full support now. Focus in consoling and strengthening them at this moment ignoring everyone else. May his soul rest in peace. You will get depressed if you try to find what people have in store to discuss on the matter.

    Very true, Mr Hussain. Reports from a chawl in Nalasopara because family and children have abandoned because of sarcastic ill treatment. Wheelchair is the only companion.

    There must a be counseling session in schools & colleges once academic year starts.
    So that students can get positive things in studies and nothing to take much pressure on it.
    This will help students to stay away from pressure.

    Un-healthy competition, commercialization of education system & "caste based reservation system" are to be blamed for these kind of incidents.

    Even machine has life in its use or hours it can be used during the day. The children tendency to suicide is because of severe pressure of study and work load in the school
    The students get panic when they don't get required marks or course. It is very ridiculous to answer in 3 hours by marking the answer in the sheet. The methodology of teaching differs from teachers to teacher. Ultimately the child will not use his/her mind but stick on to by hearted answer. So any disturbance of mind is disaster to the child. The govt must bring suitable education policy to avert suicidal mind of children. The tuition should be banned and the number of working hours and playing strictly prescribed
    The soul of the child may rest in peace

    It may not be pressure at school but at tuition classes.

    Failure in love might be reason behind. May be girl rejected him outrightly on whom he kept hope from long. Now a days youngsters not much bothered about studies. What happened is not good.
