Updated description of Suicides in India from
This package compiles a comprehensive set of datasets on suicides in India, offering an in-depth view of trends, patterns, and contributing factors. It spans over a decade of suicide incidence rates, alongside detailed breakdowns by age, gender, marital status, education, economic status, profession, and regional distribution at the State, UT, and city levels. The datasets also classify suicides by causes—ranging from health and family issues to financial and social pressures—as well as by methods adopted and instances of family or mass suicides. By bringing together demographic, socio-economic, and geographic perspectives, this package enables researchers, policymakers, and public health experts to examine the root drivers of suicide, assess vulnerable groups, and track regional variations. Its multi-dimensional scope makes it a critical resource for designing targeted prevention strategies, strengthening mental health interventions, and informing evidence-based policy.
