    Today's technology leads to seclusion of life from other people. Most of the people are addicted to mobile and have no time for others. 'Those who are depressed, there is no proper place for counselling or proper guidance. One generation back, people were poor but had time for others to share, talk.

    RIP to Gretta.

    RIP Gretta D'Souza. Anyway there is no point in advising dead ones...!!!!! But living ones in difficulty can be advised. If you think that no one loves you during you are alive, then no one thinks or affected by your death also. Suicide is not a option fight for living. ven beggars live a royal life in most of the cases.

    There can be 1001 reasons for people to commit suicide , why are we coming to a conclusion that covid 19 and her financial problem is the only reason behind her extreme step, it's left to the family and the concerned agencies to investigate and find out the actual truth.

    RIP Gretta D'Souza

    Yes it’s fact specially private schools charge full fees to the kids but when they pay salary to the teachers they pay only 50% and how the teachers run their family expenses.

    Because of covid.... most of the teacher specially whoever working in private schools are not getting their salaries, so it's very difficult to run day by day life. Some of teachers started selling fruits and vegetables. I don't know about the reason behind her suicide but most of the teachers are in financial troubles

    It's a very bad situation currently parents don't have money to pay children's fee due to which school authority don't have money for salary this is a cycle affecting everyone in it.

    Rest in peace Teacher Gretta D’Souza. Very sad for precious lives are lost.
    About schools collecting fees, lets remember that:-
    Schools have to incur maintenance expenses, pay to staff, pay taxes.
    Govt is ordering them to pay to staff, pay taxes, if they don't collect fees, how will they operate?
    Govt itself collecting taxes, interest penalty in order to operate.

    Don’t say blindly search in google. Specify one of the teachers or school which have forced teachers to go into vegetable selling in mangalore or surrounding areas. Please check you facts and then comment.
