Growing stress & emotional challenges within households

- Aman Sharma

Almost half of all suicides reported in Indore during 2023 were due to family-related issues, making it the leading cause of self-harm in the city, according to data recently released by the National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB).

The city recorded 717 suicide cases in 2023, compared to 746 in 2022, marking a 3.9% decline. Despite the slight dip, the numbers remain a cause of concern for mental health professionals and authorities.

Psychiatrist Dr Ramgulam Razdan, former HoD psychiatry in MGM Medical College, said that the drop in suicide cases could be attributed to ongoing awareness campaigns and restricted access to harmful substances.
