Economic & Political WeeklySummary: Student suicides in India have largely been addressed through individualised, psychocentric frameworks, despite their persistently high rates. This article examines how the Supreme Court’s 2025 interventions reframed student suicides as a failure of institutional governance and protection rather than just individual vulnerability. Drawing on judicial orders, national data, policy frameworks, and field insights, it argues that judicial urgency exposes the limits of advisory prevention and underscores structural inequalities shaping institutional capacity to protect vulnerable children.-Reproduced
