    I really do not understand why people comment with strange names, is it out of fear or feel shy in disclosing the true identity? Comment boldly, its on the death of a person no matter how one dies.

    The loss to the parents and dear ones cannot be understood by others. Who knows why people take to this kind of drastic steps to end their lives. Only the person going through this phase can know . I don't blame parents or anyone for this, as I am sure they take care of their children in the best possible manner giving proper education, livelihood till they become matured enough to stand on their own feet. At times such people should get proper counselling, provided they discuss their problems either with parents or close ones. I only pray to God to help his family members to bear this irreparable loss of this young member of their family. May God give them enough strength at this time of grief.

    Eternal rest grant unto him O Lord, let perpetual light shine upon him and may the departed soul of Mihir by the mercy of God rest in peace. Amen

    Very sad to see another young dynamic person end his life. Minor may be going to turmoil in life,but ending ones life to escape the problems and situation is no answer. I say they are very self centered do not care about any one behind them ....most important thier parents who have bought them into the world and struggled to bring them up. When it's the time for the children to take care of thier parents you end ur life. ..not thinking about the sad plight of the parents and those who live you??. Where is our generation going ? Of late so many suicides...its really an alarm. I think we parents are going wrong in bringing up our children by giving them all the luxury and comfort in life thus they are lost without them nor do they strive for it by themselves when they are grown. They give up on life in difficult situation very easily and end thier life. Pleading all parents and children to please go for counselling or have counselling sessions for both parents and children to cope up with stressful situation.My heartfelt condolences to the parents of Mhir .May God forgive him of this sin and grant him eternal rest. And his parents be blessed with the strength and serenity to bear his loss.

    Rest In Peace Mihir. Heartfelt condolences to the grieving family and friends.

    To the rest of you posting comments :
    Please refrain from your assumptions and adding color to business, interests and politics. It is possibly such lose statements in general life that are more toxic than a help to others.

    Not everything for an entrepreneur or an individual is driven by business and politics .

    Instead chose to remember Mihir for his entrepreneurial spirit , adding value to coffee. He took traditional plantations to a more sophisticated level and we should remember him for these contributions .

    i knew mahir pretty well, in fact had a chat with him 3days back in whats app, he was a briliant guy and very affectionate and down to earth, little did i know or relaize that this man would end his life, its just tragic, he was a excellent coffee brewer and had great passionate for coffee , he had studied in italy then returned back, its just tragic that such a good friend has left this world, i also sympathise with his parents what they are going through now , there was no need for this at all, lost for words , may his soul rest in peace , find it very hard to belive in fact those who knew him well would also feel the same way the way i do , there would be no reason at all that would have pushed him to take this exteme step, but in fact there was a reason which we never knew thats what the most suprsing part , or he wouldnt have commited suicide , may his soul rest in peace

    I know Mihir from my Primary school days. He is from a well to do family of Coffee planters. He was always passionate about coffee.
    A brilliant guy.
    It's a shame that all these people here are talking about Politics , religion , Economy ,demonetization etc without even knowing the facts.
    Only Mihir knows why he did this.
    We all are fighting our inner battles everyday . Some stay strong some give up...
    Please refrain from making senseless comments .
    RIP Mihir

    RIP bro!
    Our economy is in a structural breakdown; all core sectors are suffering whose ripple effect is being felt downstream to the lowest level!
    First signs of an economic downtrend are a prolonged slowdown in auto industry; it is said that when GM sneezes Wall Street catches a cold!
    This has even affected the IT INDUSTRY with large layouts!

    Stock market, common investors have lost their undergarments! Bank scams, realty scams, chit fund scams have killed many innocent investors!

    Gulf boo m is over!

    80% of postgraduate seats in engg seats are empty!

    After Jet, so many big cos have closed down, and many not paying salaries for months; latest news is Vodafone is on the verge of bankruptcy!

    All this will lead to big job losses, forget about adding jobs!

    Adding to this nature's fury has caused immense losses both to agriculture & otherwise!

    The above is the ground level situation, and should not be construed as a speculation for the tragic demise of our brother!!

    The bourses have turned into a den of gambling & corruption with the regulators turning a blind eye to the common investors woes; gullible investors have lost heavily while the index level is artificially managed to hide the truth!!

    RIP bro.!!All this happens when we give more importance to our business our own pleasure and our own desires than god!!
    If we give importance to god before beginning our day with prayer and praise our day will be more beautiful and devil will definitely flee and there will not be any suicidal tendencies..
    Suicidal thoughts are from devil we can overcome only by prayer
    We cannot destroy devil but we can distroy the works of evil because he is spirit of evil
    That’s why begin your day with prayer
    And if suicidal tendencies occur your way just praise god and cry out to god no matter who you are or whatever religion you belong to think that there is only one creator almighty is his name
    Have a wonderful stay in this world

    Without even reading the above comments and reading only the news.. I'm very sure this guy has gone through a lot of hardship.

    I'm sure he was working on a startup idea that didn't work out.
    Whatever the reason, Such drastic step should never have been taken...

    Anyway, what has happened or will happen can never be stopped or changed.
    That's destiny..

    Pray to almighty God to give his family the courage and strength to move on and pray to God to grant him eternal peace. RIP..
    Amen...

    The Christian community, is certainly in a deep crisis.... rapidly declining in numbers,
    educated professionals, have emigrated to effluent countries...... the gulf boom, has vaporized, leaving many disillusioned, the few businesses families n entrepreneurs, have to survive or perish in the rat race !!!!! There is little support nor any guidance, from the community...The aftereffects can be visualized today with numerous young and the old, even priest's prefer to end their lives, rather then face ignominy, in this earthly existence !!!!!!!

    Your comments are nothing but pessimistic. Do not generalise. There are many limitations in our Christian community which should not bother individuals. One should not loose his self identity to others including the leaders, both community and religious.

    What is lacking with most of the youngsters is expectations beyond one's limitations, lack of handling disappointments & failures, too much worried about the peer group comments, boasting to the group out of proportion of one's own achievement and many more.

    Growth in spirituality and complete depending on Almighty for all failures & success, will definitely going to change one's outlook.

    Also sometimes lack of prayers, no God, makes Devil (one's own negative thoughts) easier to take away a life. One needs or parents need atleast half an hour to pray for their children in a day. No prayers then these things bound to happen and near and dear ones have to suffer.

    Daily Rosary is the best solution as it is a Chain of Roses to God which binds anxieties, fears, hopelessness, depression and overcoming past brought up, unkept promises and bondages if any and to start a fresh or a new beginning. Basically prayers to God calm one down which makes one look for alternatives instead of succumbing to thoughts of being totally lost and taking an adverse action.
