Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2. Suicide is the act of deliberately taking one’s
own life.
Suicidal behavior is any deliberate action with
potentially life-threatening consequences,
such as taking a drug over-dose.
3. Suicidal attempt: it involves a serious act, such as
taking a fatal amount of medication, and
someone intervening accidentally. Without the
accidental discovery, the individual would be
dead.
Suicidal gesture: denotes a person undertaking
an unusual, but not fatal behavior as a cry for
help or to get attention.
Suicide gamble: is for example, to ingest a fatal
amount of drugs with the belief that family
members will be home before death occurs.
Patients gamble their lives that they will be found
in time and that the discoverer will save them.
4. Intent:
Subjective expectation and desire for a self
destructive act to end in death.
Degree of ambivalence: wish to live, wish to
die.
Deterrents: ( e.g family, religion, positive
therapeutic relationships, positive support
system- including work)
5. The method of suicide can be relatively
nonviolent ( such as poisoning or overdose)
or violent ( such as shooting oneself.
Males are more likely to choose violent
methods, which probably accounts for the
fact that suicide attempts by males are more
likely to be completed
Many suicides involves a firearm. This is
especially true in elderly men, in which 80% of
suicides are performed with a gun.
6. The principal mode of choice among those
who attempted suicide was household
poison(40%), pesticides (27%), followed by
hanging (12%), shooting (11%), cutting,
burning and drowning oneself (2%). The
remaining modes used were electrocution, hit
by train, car etc which accounted for 14
percent of attempted suicides.
7. According to national institute of mental
health suicide is a major, preventable public
health problem. In 2021, it was the eleventh
leading cause of death in U.S, accounting for
32,439 deaths. The overall rate was 10.9
deaths per 100,000 people. An estimated 8-
25 attempted suicides occur per every suicide
death.
8. In Pakistan, suicide rates have alarmingly increased
over the past few years, and a great majority of them
are among the youth of this nation.
In 1999, more than 332 death suicide cases were
reported; rising to 550 in the year 2000.
this figure jumped four fold in 2001 when 2386
suicidal cases were reported, suggesting that
approximately 6-7 suicides occur everyday in
Pakistan. These figures are the recognized reports
from different sources, yet the number of unreported
suicides is an unknown factor.
Hence the actual figures may be as high as 10
suicides per day, which would translate to over 3,500
suicides in forthcoming year.
9. Depression an other mental disorders, or a
substance-abuse disorder ( often in
combination with other mental disorders).
More than 90 percent of people who die by
suicide have these risk factors.
Stressful life events, in combination with
other risk factors, such as depression.
However, suicide and suicidal behavior are
not normal responses to stress, many people
have these risk factors, but are not suicidal.
Prior suicide attempts.
10. Family history of mental disorder or
substance abuse
Family history of suicide
Family violence, including physical or sexual
abuse
Firearms in the home, the method used in
more than half of suicides
Incarceration
Exposure to the suicidal behavior of others,
such as family members, peer, or media
figures.

Fire arm 57 32
Suffocation 23 20
Poisoning 13 38
12. Economic ( poverty, unemployment) (52%)
Social exclusion (32%)
Failure in love (11%)
Police torture (1%)
Mental disorder (3%)

13. Early signs:
Depression
statements or expressions of guilt feelings
Tension or anxiety
nervousness
impulsiveness
Critical signs:
Sudden change in behavior, especially calmness after
a period of anxiety
Giving away belongings, attempts to “get one’s affairs
in order”
Direct or indirect threats to commit suicide
Direct attempts to commit suicide
16. Attend to issue of patient’s safety
Assess treatment plan/setting/alliance.
Somatic treatment modalities
ECT- used to treat acute suicidal behavior
Benzodiazepenes: may reduce risk by treating anxiety
Antidepressants
Lithium
Anticonvulsants
Antipsychotics- recent study on clozapine
Psychotherapeutic interventions: widely used as helpful for
suicidal patients, evidence is limited
Provide education to patient and family
Monitor psychiatric status and response to treatment
Reassess for safety and suicide risk frequently
17. Appreciate the complexity of suicide/ multiple
contributing factors
Conduct a thorough psychiatric examination,
identifying risk factors and protective factors and
distinguishing risk factors which can be modified
from those which cannot
Ask directly about suicide; specific suicide
inquiry
Determine level of suicide risk; low, moderate,
high
Determine treatment setting and plan
Document assessment
18. Emergency measures may be necessary after
a person has attempted suicide. First aid,
CPR, or mouth to mouth breathing may be
required.
Hospitalization is often needed to treat the
recent actions and to prevent future attempts
Psychiatric interventions is one of the most
important aspects of treatment
19. ECT Evidence for short term reduction of suicide but not
long term
Benzodiazepene
s
May reduce risk by treating anxiety
Antidepressants A mainstay treatment of suicidal patients with
depressive illness/ symptoms. No cunclusive
evidence of suicide reduction
Lithium and
Anti-
convalsants
Lithium has a demonstrated anti-suicide effects, anti
convalsants do not
Antipsychotics Evidence for clozapine reducing suicidality in
schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder
20. Research has shown that mental and substance-
abuse disorders are major risk factors for
suicide, may programs also focus on treating
these disorders
Studies showed that a type of psychotherapy
called cognitive therapy reduced the rate
repeated suicide attempts by 50% during a year
of follow up. A previous suicide attempt is
among the strongest predictors of subsequent
suicide and cognitive therapy helps suicide
attempters consider alternative actions when
thoughts of self harm arise.
21. Suicide attempts and threats should always
be taken seriously. About one third of people
who attempt suicide will repeat the attempt
within one year, and about 10% of those who
threaten or attempt suicide eventually do kill
themselves.
Complications:
Vary depending on the type of suicide attempt
22. A person who threatens or attempts suicide
MUST be evaluated immediately by a mental
health professional. NEVER IGNORE A SUICIDE
THREAT OR ATTPMPT.
