Abstract:Suicide is one of the ten leading causes of death in the world, accounting for more than a million deaths annually. The purpose of the study was to identify the risk groups. In the four-year period from January 2011 to December 2015, 288 suicide victims were autopsied in Wardha District. Information was obtained by news papers. All the cases were analyzed as to sex, age, and methods of suicide, seasonal variation, diurnal variation and other sociological aspects. Male and female were almost equally the sufferers. The largest number of victims was found in the age group of 20–30 years. Hanging and poisoning constituted the two major modes of suicides. Suicidal note was detected in 5% of cases. Suicidal tendency and alcohol intake could not be encountered in most of the cases. Indoor incidence was almost double of the outdoor incidence, mostly seen in rainy season (43%) and occurred almost equally during day and night. Financial burden (37%) and marital disharmony (35%) were the principal reasons for the suicide.

In this study total 400 Students (200 sports students and 200 non-sports students) were selected in the Wardha. The age group selected for the study was 20 to 30 yrs.
