BHOPAL: Heavy debt burden drove a farmer to die by suicide in Harda district of Madhya Pradesh.

The 44-year-old Rajesh Karode of Dagvashankar village consumed celphos, a fumigant used for management of area rodents and bug pests, on June 7. He was admitted to the Harda District Hospital the place he succumbed on Friday.

Assistant sub-inspector of police at native police station Sandeep Kushwaha stated that Rajesh Karode’s son claimed that his father owed non-public mortgage sharks value Rs 40 lakh. Private cash lenders had been troubling him every day for restoration of the excellent dues.

The excellent mortgage sum had peaked to Rs 40 lakh, as the cash lenders had imposed 10% curiosity on the mortgage, which was growing the payable sum with each passing month.

Owing to the mounting dues, the farmer was compelled to promote 10 acres of land, his son alleged.

Tweeting over the incident, former CM and current state Congress president Kamal Nath wrote, “I urge all farmers not to give up, but wait for another five months. Once the Congress government is in power, the farmers’ loans will be waived off.”  

Discussing suicides might be triggering for some. However, suicides are preventable. In case you’re feeling distressed by the content material or know somebody in misery, name Sneha Foundation – 04424640050 (accessible 24×7)
