But in a sign of just how deep the mental health crisis in India’s coaching hub is, in those 55 days alone, Kota Abhay Command Centre — a special students’ cell set up by the police on June 22 that works to prevent such suicides — intervened after distress calls from 45 more students who were contemplating suicide.
