abstract="The epidemiology of suicide in India from 1995-1999 was presented. The data show an increasing incidence of suicide; over 100,000 people commit suicide each year in India. The ratio of male|female is small by international comparisons. Illness and interpersonal|familial factors appear to be common motives, although suicide is more complex in India. Further, it is concluded that India's data may well be problematic, being overly based on police records and that a much greater micro study to identify the multideterminant factors of suicide in India is needed.<p />",
