Navi Mumbai was shaken on Monday morning with the news of two teenage boys committing suicide. According to police, the boys had been dealing with a great deal of stress and had lost a family member.
The first incident involved Prithvi Dhavale, a 14-year-old student of SBOA School and resident of Nerul. His family had gone out for the night, and when they returned, they found Prithvi had hanged himself in his room. A suicide note revealed that Prithvi had been struggling with his studies and was unable to cope with the pressure.
The second incident involved Darshil Kishor Patil, a 15-year-old student of Don Bosco School in Seawoods. His father had passed away last year and Darshil had been under immense pressure to take care of his mother and siblings. When his family went to bed, he sent a message to his sister that he was ending his life due to the expectations of his family.
The morning after, his family woke up to find him missing. They rushed to the police station to file a complaint. A manhunt was launched and his body was recovered from Karave Lake.
Police have registered both incidents as accidental death and are currently looking further into the matter. It is a heartbreaking reminder of how mental health should not be taken lightly and that support systems should be put in place to prevent tragedies such as these.
