People commiting suicide is not bad at all. If you don't want to live you should be free to die..No one should stop anyone...When you feel you have lived enough...you should stop living...and thanks to a city like bangalore...where you get a lot of opportunity to live....there is nothing wrong in dying..What say guys ?

What a stupid comment. I ca never imagine a guy who is educated is taking like this. First they are not commiting suicide having thought of lived enough. They feel they are incapable to handle the pressure so they commit. Even if they think they have lived enough they shud go for seva and not to commit suicide

Sorry, I totally disagree.... U are born to live..., U hv not lived enough till the end..., U have no rights to die. It is cosmic and gifted one. And boss, stopppp being so cynical, there cannot be ENOUGH when it comes to life. With thousands of problems, still u need to see the brighter side of life always. I know I am a bit philosphical, but at times u have to be this way. when you say its enough, you have to end there, this means "YOU DON`T KNOW TO LIVE AND LOVE LIFE"..... Cheers, Roopa

do u know where is the end of life... u cannot live according to ur desire but u can escape if u wish i say "dying according to ur will is a gift a wish everybody is not capable of it" wat do u mean the brighter side of life... u never know what is the end of the darkness... when darkness over rules the light... suicide become an enlightenment. u can never speak philosophy on others stress levels its an experience it cannot be explained it can only be experienced... by arun prabhu

and the other thing is that there is little that we can or cannot do about the people gone by, but when a person commits suicide it is a statement more against his/her immediate group and the larger society. Thus every suicide should make us introspect at the world we live, the one who is dead has found eternal peace, it is the living who are condemned. Better act before lord Yama decides to play his charm on You. Venkat
lets try and figure it out perfectly guys.lets stop blaming the ites/it companies for once and look at reality.what we need to undersatnd that these companies are providing us with livehood.we can't blame the companies for the time taken for a employee to travel.they are workin for a around 9 hrs and end up traveling for about 3hrs a day which is quite long.as an employee myself im more stressed with long ride top office that at work.am not tryin to support the it/ties companies but what im tryin to tell is lets lash out at the government for not providins with adequate infrastructure.lets make sure they open their eyes atleast now.
It ought to be too. The idyllic life of bangalore has completely gone now. Every nice person is now a stresed character, lots of money, no social skills, all huffed up due to work positions. This is all a result of the unabated growth of the software business and entrepreneurs who have made it a number game they indulge in and in exchange make some millionaires and document their pro people policies in pcmm and other certifications/ assessments, whereas reality is completely opposite. None of the software guys actually are proud of their jobs, they cannot lose that money and in holding onto that they do things that get them stressed. Suicide is obviously the choice for most with such little self worth, their self worth is in the flats they own and the size of their cars. Their value is the credit limit of their credit cards and the foreign jaunts they make year on year. The government has facilitated the traffic chaos, after all in such a story of greed would not our politicians partner?

I am in sales and i always thought that we sales guys only have lots of pressure but this is something very strange for me. I am still not able to imagine that how this stress reaches to a level where people commit suicide.
see stress is because jobs not secure and future is not secure without a job. So just keep investing and saving and stay out of loans please. take loans only in worst case scenario.

its all about planning things in a logical way and realizing the vision about the life... never expect anything from others ur choice is half chance
From IT jobs people are earning money, did you think they are happy? Never. Their life is full of tension same as the high-class. But if you go to a farmer%u2019s house there you can see the true happy life. If you are healthy then only you have life. You can ask me a question without money how should you live happily. I will reply, see I have 10crores in my hand but Iam a cancer patient. What is your comment? Always old is gold. My advice is to spent money in farming areas develop healthy grains eat good foods be healthy, die happily. Another problem is most of the farming areas are converted to real estates. Economy as well as life is matter here. Stop eating Macdonald%u2019s food and start eat fresh vegetables.Young generation is running back of IT jobs and money,I didn't get it why this is happening.I think everything is based on the changing life styles adopted by the rich people in the country supported by our Govt..Remember nothing can replace you life.If you are healthy then only you can earn. so health is important than wealth.Nowdays people are not caring about their health.. Now days you can see in hospitals doctors are not allowing pregnant women to deliver normally. Why because they can make money from their business. See one thing everything is good for the rich society, they can pay. Always everything affects the poor peoples economy.Request the Govt. to adapt old life style to India then people will become healthy.

It's all good to say so & read. Well, when u say government, is it reliable? Can we afford to put our heard earned money into their hands & trust them? It's the system we need to target & fix, it's the people managing that system that we should be looking to replace with good ones; (I don't know who those good ones are). but that's the problem. Infrastructure!! Metro could be a bit of relief but, who cares executing it. Automobile companies like Bajaj, TVS are showing double figure growth year-on-year in their sales... who cares if Bangalore roads can accomodate them, just sell them. Not only IT/ITES/BPO but manufacturing industries are also having their own fleet of vehicles! to add to that they hire taxis for picking & droping employees. Don't you think excellent transporation service will help to a great extent. A GOOD & RELIABLE TRANSPORATION SERVICE WILL ADDRESS MAJOR ISSUES.

old life style or old policies?!!! These are the perils of unplanned growth and one needs to cope and mange stress. Infact the govt is working with "old" infrastructure and this greatly contributes to the traffic stress... old is not gold nor is growth bad...the problem is uncontrolled unplanned infrastructure and these will explode if growth occurs at the pace at which it did...

I know it is difficult in life to practice such things.But in practical you have to face somany hurdles first then you will be Ok.From my experience Iam writing this.If you would bother about you and your families health more than wealth you can make it definitely. If people think wisely they can reduce lot of expenditure For eg.do a vegitable garden in your backyard you can eat fresh vegitables. This will reduce some money in your monthly income. so by adding such small-small amount you can save lot. and live healthy too. If both people in the house is running for jobs making the whole family in tension and making your life span shorter and shorter. See Iam a good qualified candidate to work but still Iam happy to live as a house wife. Also I found one more thing in the generation gap,that is beneficial to our family if one parent is takingcare of the kids next generation defenitly come up with good base. Otherwise we both will earn money the kids will loose it in next generation. So no use of your savings. Iam not telling everybodies condition is the same.It depends upon families.

Yah true.. Engg r geeks.. I studied engg in Blore and many kids commit sucide in our collage... It was mainly because of the stress and unfair requirments of VTU(university)...
I hate VTU... It is the cause of many student deaths.. i hope VTU roots in hell..

Agreed. peoples should take things easy. If you dont become a CEO at 25 it doesnt mean you are worthless it only means you enjoyed your youth. Wht is the need to spoil the work culture for yourself and colleagues by donkeying your asses out beyond a normal 8 hr schedule. if people work only for 8 hrs a day and only for 5 days a week, business will not stop rather productivity and quality of life will both increase. its really dreading to work in India.
It is because of the large scale mismanagement of private corporate sector that are much in hype like IT sectors, where the personnel know only the time of commencement of their duties but continue to work indefinitely for more than eight hours many times continue for two days or three days, etc., at a stretch under instructions, forcing them to return their homes after several hours or few days after duties! Such works force them to be away from their respective families and life partners for longer periods, many times resulting in fresh partnerships and divorces which give rise to suicides due to consequences ! This is the efficiency of private corporate sectors, boasted by people like Narayana Murthy, who were perhaps very happy over the money earned rather than the welfare and interests of the families of their toiling and moiling personnel! Perhaps, selfishness and material benefits are the modern efficiency of privatisation!
I think these suicides has to do a lot with the fake experience that people provide while getting these jobs, they didn't know how stressful software can be without having enough skills to accomplish the job responsibilities. People who get into these software stuff MUST have good analytic reasoning skills but some people seriously lack them and nothing wrong with that but getting into software job is a terrible mistake which results in suicides. Probably I m wrong but I make sense to some extent.
not only the public is having skills, the companies are also coming to india for cheap labour. so every body is cheating every body.
it is not fair for companies extract a work from people who were not exposed to such work or atmosphere. but still companies come because of cheap labour.

Its not that only people from Andhra come with fakes. It depends upon on their nature and that has got nothing to do with regions and states. Moreover, corruption exists in India in every state.

hey Akshay! Stop being an old fashioned racist with your rude comments. I guess it reflects your own character. I dont think the issue is about South or North Indians. Why dont you start your own blog for such purposes. Are u living in the Stone age to make such comments or what?

Akshay, your comments show your ignorance. Visit Bangalore and decide for yourself. I am from the north but feel people here are much more decent and well mannered.
