Ramesh is a ninth-class student of Shiksha Public School from a lower-middle-class family in a tier-3 city. He had a deep interest in creative arts like music and dance and had always excelled in them. Teachers and friends often praised his talent, and Ramesh dreamed of pursuing a career in performing arts. However, his parents envisioned a different path for him, which was becoming an engineer. Coming from modest backgrounds and facing financial difficulties, Ramesh's parents were banking on the engineering career to secure a stable and prosperous future. When Ramesh shared his dream with his parents, they strongly opposed it, as expected. His father dismissed his passion as unrealistic and said music and dance were not respectable professions. He also compared Ramesh to his cousin Mahesh, who had secured a high-paying job after graduating from a top engineering college. Ramesh felt pressured and reluctantly agreed to pursue science in school. After completing his board exams, his parents sent him to Kota, a coaching hub known for engineering entrance exam preparation. To finance Ramesh's coaching fees, his parents mortgaged their only ancestral property, emphasizing the importance of Ramesh's success in the upcoming engineering entrance exams. Ramesh, torn between his dreams and his family's expectations, resolved to work hard. However, the demanding coaching schedule, coupled with his lack of interest in the subjects, began to take a toll on his mental health. Far from home, Ramesh felt isolated and depressed. He missed his friends, school environment, and the hobbies that once brought him joy. The pressure to perform was immense, with his mock test results consistently falling short of expectations. Over time, he began withdrawing from others, even avoiding phone calls with his parents. After two years of grueling preparation, Ramesh appeared for the entrance exam under the weight of crushing expectations. When the results were declared, he was unable to secure admission to a prestigious engineering college. The disappointment in his parents' voices further deepened his guilt and sense of failure. Feeling like a burden and unable to bear the weight of unmet expectations, Ramesh took a drastic step and ended his life by jumping from his hostel building.
