Indian army faces 'alarming trend of suicide'
Apart from this, cases of suicides were also reported due to harassment of women.
Delhi: A report has been released showing the data of increasing suicide rate in personnel of Indian security forces.
The Modi government, involved in propaganda against other countries, is indifferent to the problems of its security personnel.
According to the released report regarding the increasing trend of suicides in Indian security forces, a total of 1,532 suicides have been reported by security personnel from 2011 to 2023.
The report also told that Indian security forces started committing suicides due to dissatisfaction with government policies. 1532 suicide cases were reported from 2011 to 2023 while 53,336 personnel of Indian security forces gave voluntary retirement in the last five years.
Apart from this, cases of suicides were also reported due to harassment of women.
According to the report, one of the main reasons for suicides is very low salary package and lack of facilities for soldiers compared to officers.
