"Every 3 minutes, India loses a life to suicide. Forty-sixeight lives every single day. And every one of those lives had a story, a family, a future. Change.org
We can't ignore the numbers: 1.71 lakh lives lost annually. Over 150 million people suffering from mental health issues, but only 30 million receiving help. Change.org
This is why the petition 'India: The Suicide Capital of the World - Mandate Mental Health Education in Schools' was born. Initiated by Sree Krishna Seelam, and backed by Middlemen.asia and the Wedidit Foundation, this movement urges the Supreme Court to make mental health education compulsory from the very first grade. Change.org
Imagine an India where every child learns to name their emotions. Where kids learn what to do when they feel overwhelmed, how to seek help, how to support a friend. Where families no longer suffer in silence. Where stigma is replaced by understanding. That's not a dream - it's possible. Change.org
But here's the thing: laws don't change until we raise our voices. We need 1 million signatures to file a Public Interest Litigation in the Supreme Court. Your signature adds to the strength of this movement. Sharing this, talking about this - these small actions can prevent future tragedy. Change.org
If you believe in an India that sees, hears, and cares for its children - not just academically, but emotionally - then join us. Sign the petition. Share the message. Let's end the silence together. Because no life should be lost to the shadows of what we didn't teach. Together, we can change this. Together, we can save lives."
