• The World Health Organization (WHO) reports that India has an extremely understaffed mental health workforce. Comparing the number of people with mental health concerns to the number of psychiatrists and psychologists available, there is a severe deficit.
• For every 100,000 individuals, there are just three psychiatrists and psychologists, according to data from the international organisation.
• According to the forecast, 20% of patients in the nation will suffer from some form of mental illness as a result of the pandemic and its contributing elements.
• President Ramnath Kovind raised mental health concerns during his speech to the World Congress for Mental Health.
