question: Mikhail Furtado was extremely worried about his 12th-grade exams.

A few days before he was due to get his results, his father walked in and found him dead.

"I opened the cottage door, put the light on and I found him hanging. He was hanging," Anthony Furtado says.

When the results came out, his father learned that Mikhail had sailed through with good grades.

He says he still can't bring himself to go and collect the results.

But Furtado is trying to use his devastating experience to benefit others. He provides counseling and is a regular at suicide prevention workshops.

"Sometimes, at the end, I do break down," he says.

Highest rate in the world among young

The scale of the problem among India's young people is huge.

According to a recent World Health Organization report, India has the highest suicide rate in the world for the 15-to-29 age group. It stands at 35.5 per 100,000 people for 2012, the last year for which numbers are available.

Across all age groups, nearly 260,000 people in India killed themselves that year.

Bobby Zachariah, who runs a suicide prevention group, says he blames a breakdown in India's traditional family structure.

"There were big families, there was a lot of support available," he says.

"Nowadays, there is one child in the family," Zachariah says. "And the kind of parenting styles that were applied to them when they were kids doesn't apply to their children any more."

Reducing stigma

Some experts say a key problem is that families brush mental health issues under the carpet rather than facing them head on.

CHAPTER VIII

AN INFORMAL COURT

One morning, soon after Fuller and his daughter had gone home, Dick stood at a table in the testing house behind the mixing sheds. The small, galvanized iron building shook with the throb of engines and rattle of machinery, and now and then a shower of cinders pattered upon the roof; for the big mill that ground up the concrete was working across the road. The lattice shutters were closed, for the sake of privacy, and kept out the glare, though they could not keep out the heat, which soaked through the thin, iron walls, and Dick's face was wet with perspiration as he arranged a number of small concrete blocks. Some of these were broken, and some partly crushed. Delicate scales and glass measures occupied a neighboring shelf, and a big steel apparatus that looked rather like a lever weighing machine stood in the shadow.

Where the draught that came through the lattices flowed across the room, Bethune lounged in a canvas chair, and another man, with a quiet, sunburned face, sat behind him. This was Stuyvesant, whose authority was only second to Fuller's.

"Brandon seems to have taken a good deal of trouble, but this kind of investigation needs the strictest accuracy, and we haven't the best of testing apparatus," Bethune remarked. "I expect he'll allow that the results he has got may be to some extent misleading, and I doubt if it's worth while to go on with the matter. Are you sure you have made no mistakes, Dick?"
