“We have directed all the policemen to respond quickly to social media posts related to suicide and save the lives of persons who post such messages. Facebook has partnered with us so that we can respond immediately,” he said.
Additional CP (West) Chiranjeev Nath Sinha went straight to the house of the 29-year-old man who had posted the suicide note.
The man admitted to making a mistake and promised not to do so again.
“He said that he took the step due to mental tension he was facing after not being able to qualify NEET and he was counselled that it was not the end of life. We have provided him the police mobile number and asked him to feel free in calling up whenever he has any problem,” said Sinha.JAMB Result
