Globally, the COVID-19 pandemic presented previously unheard-of difficulties that affected   a number of aspects of daily life. This study aims to illustrate the most impacted segments of   the population during the COVID-19 pandemic and investigates the suicide trend in Madhya  Pradesh’s central area, providing insight into the possible effects of the crisis on mental health.  India is a country with a large population and a wide range of socioeconomic backgrounds, and  it has been severely affected by the pandemic. People’s stress levels increased as a result of the  nation’s widespread lockdowns, economic downturns, pressure on the healthcare system, and   social unrest. These elements have added to an increased psychological pressure, as have the  worries of being sick, being alone, and losing loved ones. Anecdotal data and preliminary research  point to a concerning spike in suicide rates in India during the pandemic. Frontline healthcare professionals, migrants, and vulnerable people are just a few of the demographic groups that have  been affected. Aside from this the groups with the highest suicide rates are married people, lower  middle economic class, nuclear families, jobless people, and students. Probable reason behind that  according to our study is hopelessness and guilt of not able to meet family expectations due to unemployment or loss of job during covid era. Things get worse when stigma, lack of awareness, and restricted access to mental health resources are combined.  To create successful treatments and support networks, it is essential to comprehend the complex relationships that exist between the COVID-19 pandemic and suicide rates in India. To address the mental  health issues brought on by the epidemic in India and other comparable settings, more study is needed to
determine the long-term effects and create focused mitigation mechanisms. This research demonstrates   the most impacted segment of the population and    the suicide trends during the COVID-19 pandemic reported to the mortuary of a tertiary care center
of central region of Madhya Pradesh.
