Mangaluru: Speaking at the ‘Bearys Campus Connect’ program organized for students and parents at the Bearys Knowledge Campus in Inoli, Mangaluru, on Saturday, CIGMA CEO and India’s leading career coach Ameen-e-Mudassar emphasized that along with education, personality, skills, and interests play a crucial role in the journey of life.

He stated that intended goals can be achieved through hard work and a disciplined lifestyle. Therefore, students should develop life values and move forward with their future dreams.

He urged parents not to focus solely on ranks and marks but to also consider their children's future and life choices. "If children are stressed before the exams, they will be happy after the exams. However, if their expectations are not met, parents should never hurt their feelings," he said.

He also noted that SSLC and PUC education form the foundation for higher education and that the marks obtained at the undergraduate level are critical. “There are about 22 entrance exams in the country, and only with good scores can students access various opportunities,” he added.

He also urged parents to instill the habit of reading newspapers in their children at home every day, without which the children will not develop their knowledge. He said that children should be encouraged to develop the habit of reading newspapers, regardless of the language

New Delhi (PTI): Three members of a family were found dead inside their home in southeast Delhi's Kalkaji on Friday, with police suspecting it to be a case of suicide, officials said.

Police said the incident came to light around 2.47 pm when a police team reached the premises to execute a court order related to possession of the property. When repeated knocks went unanswered, the staff used a duplicate key to open the door.

Inside, officers found Anuradha Kapoor (52) and her sons, Ashish Kapoor (32) and Chaitanya Kapoor (27), hanging from the ceiling, Deputy Commissioner of Police (Southeast) Hemant Tiwari said in a statement. All three were declared dead.

A handwritten note was recovered from the room, suggesting the family had been struggling with depression.

"The handwritten note indicates emotional distress faced by the family due to which the family may have taken the extreme step," the officer said.

The bodies have been shifted to the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) mortuary for post-mortem and other legal formalities under Section 194 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS), police said.

Residents of the neighbourhood said they were shocked to learn about the deaths, adding that the family kept largely to themselves.

Pankaj Kashyap, a resident of Girinagar, said he learnt about the deaths while leaving for work. "I live and work here and was leaving for work when I saw many people standing outside and talking. That is how I got to know that three people had committed suicide. I also saw several police vehicles outside, but I do not know much beyond that," he said.

Baldev, another neighbour, said the family had been living in the newly constructed house for around two years. "We only knew that a mother and her two children lived there. They had moved into the newly built house around two years ago. We did not interact much with them. Today we heard that all three have committed suicide, and whatever we know is based on what people here are saying," he said.

Another neighbour, Ramesh Kumar, claimed the family had earlier attempted suicide.

"About fifteen to twenty days ago, the two sons in the family had attempted suicide and police and ambulances had come. That was when I first got to know who they were. I do not recognise them by face, but we saw the ambulances and police take the two sons that day. Today again we saw ambulances and police arriving, so everyone came out to see what had happened. I do not know how long they had been living here, but this is all we know," he said.

Police said they are examining the family's financial condition, social circumstances, and other factors that may have contributed to the incident. Further investigation is underway.
