I’m just a silent observer but couldn’t resist logging in after seeing this thread ....
Yes it is deeply saddening to see Sushant commit suicide , not because he was a great actor or from a top college but because he was a human being whose life became so hopeless that he found peace in death and none of his friends truly reached out to him , no one saw the signs of suicidal behaviour in him ....
Suicide isn’t an impulsive decision , there are signs of suicidal behaviour which can easily be recognised by people around ...
People truly impacted by his suicide?
May be not many because people will continue to ignore the signs... people will continue to judge each other on hollow parameters of success... people will continue to be too busy to listen to anyone’s cry for help ...
So insensitive of you to say that may b a few years later anyone of us could do this ... if you think that there is a possibility of aspirants committing suicide then you should’ve created something more humane .... talk about life being more precious than any success/failure or glamorising civil services and glorification of rank holders needs to stop ... if there’s anything that deserves glorification is the work done by them ... how about that ?
@rashiv The ‘glorification’ and ‘glamourising’ isn't something someone can choose, isn't it? We don't become glorious or glamorous unless the society gives us that stamp. Something that society can't take away either.
We are very much the part of same society . How many people genuinely want to clear this exam because they are moved by the idea of public service ? Not many ...
Either people want to prove somebody wrong or right , or want to marry someone of their choice or may be they have been so attention starved all their lives that they want to live their lives to show everyone how cool they are .
Everyone who solely prepares to prove anything to anyone else is , in a way glorifying the service... They fuel the mentality that everyone except for an IAS officer is a loser . And in turn inciting failed aspirants to commit suicide ...
So many toppers do nothing but post pictures on social media and create self glorifying YouTube vids ... I wonder how you didn’t come across any of it by now . That’s how this service is glorified... and this is what incites aspirants to commit suicide.
I’ve seen so many people on previous platform suffering emotionally , on the verge of committing suicide and guess how many self proclaimed “mahaan log” reached out to them and tried to help them ? None .. absolutely no one except for fellow empathetic aspirants ....
Empthay for most people is limited to GS4 only ...
People working in the service are equally responsible for creating this environment except for people who created initiatives like humans of LBSNAA .
Kindly dont drag this further .... I don’t want to get into this debate ...

Your line of thought and display name have such ironical distinction. :)
Thanks ♥️.
you must be an offline student of the institute and a newbie . Just a guess .
