Anti-Suicide Device Installed in Hostel Ceiling Fans to Prevent Student Suicides

Published

on

Bengaluru: In a significant move to curb the rising number of student suicides, the Rajiv Gandhi University of Health Sciences (RGUHS) has initiated the installation of anti-suicide devices on ceiling fans in college hostels.

The device, fitted to ceiling fans, is designed to detect any load exceeding a preset limit. When such weight is applied, the system automatically triggers an alert, detaching the fan from its hook and rendering it non-functional for hanging. In addition to this fail-safe mechanism, the device is equipped with a siren that immediately alerts hostel authorities, allowing for quick intervention and support.

According to university officials, this initiative not only aims to physically prevent suicide attempts but also enables timely identification of students in distress. Authorities hope this will help provide them with necessary psychological support and counselling.

A pilot test of the device has already been conducted at the Mysore Medical College and Research Institute (MIMS), where its functionality and reliability were successfully demonstrated.

This “master plan” by RGUHS is being lauded as a vital step toward ensuring student safety and mental well-being in educational institutions across the state.
