	Description:		India faces a ‘suicide emergency’ today. It contributes to one-fifth of the total suicide deaths in the world and suicide is the leading cause of death among 15-29 year-olds in the country. The Union Ministry of Health & Family Welfare released the National Suicide Prevention Strategy last month which aims to reduce suicide mortality by 10% by 2030. In this episode, Shrikrishna Upadhyaya hosts Sachin Kalbag (Senior Fellow, Takshashila Institution) to unpack the strategy and discuss the multi-sectoral approach to tackling suicide adopted by the strategy.
