BHOPAL: The vantage point on the VIP road in the state capital, along the statue of Raja Bhoj in Upper lake from where the city's landscape and sunrise and sunset are a treat to watch, has earned a dubious distinction of being the 'suicide point'. The bridge close to the statue of Raja Bhoj on the Upper lake is the spot from where maximum number of suicides have been reported in the past few years. As many as eight people have jumped to death from the place in the last six months and the figure is feared to go up further by the year ends. In the year 2010, a total of 10 people committed suicide from there. Suicide numbers rose to 12 in 2011. The city police have also sent a missive to the BMC asking the civic body to put up 10 feet high grills on both sides of the VIP road to prevent people from scaling it. The additional superintendent of police Rajesh Mishra confirmed to TOI that a letter has been written to the corporation around a week back. "We have asked for installation of grills from Retghat to the Raja Bhoj statue. It must be in process", he added. Bhopal Municipal Corporation (BMC) officials claim to have started a process to install iron mesh all along the lake side on the VIP road where the water is deep.
