Tamil Nadu BJP president K. Annamalai on Monday said he was deeply pained by the suicide of S. Jegadeshwaran, 19, over his failure in NEET and, later, his father P. Selvasekar, who could not cope up with his son’s loss.
He said students should understand that ending one’s life was not a solution for anything. He said examinations were a reality one had to face not only in schools but later as well in colleges and for employment in the government sector.
He said it was the responsibility of the parents to ensure that their children did not succumb to societal pressures.
