Many of the techies have committed suicide over the years due to various reasons from their professional problems as well as personal problems. Sometimes many of the employees have experienced harassment from their seniors like in the year 2009, an ex-employee from Wipro by name Ram Manohar G, had filed a complaint on his senior officials who were forcing him to resign every time and it had all started during the time of recession where many of the employees were being sacked in that year.

Few employees take bold steps for fighting for their injustice and some of the people find no other way than committing suicide. The stress levels at work, competition, family issues and disturbing habits of IT professionals have made them prone to suicide tendencies. 

In a study conducted by NIMHANS showed that around 1 in every 20 IT professionals contemplates suicide and 27.6 percent of them in India are addicted to narcotic drugs to control their depression level. When Siliconindia tried reaching them for further information, they were unable to comment on it.
