Neerja Birla, the founder and chairperson of Aditya Birla Education Trust, Saturday there has not been much talk on mental health, even today, due to the stigma attached to it, and that the situation was much worse earlier. “Six years ago, when we started to work, it was less spoken about compared to today because the stigma attached to it is deeply rooted,” Birla, who herself faced mental health issues in her life, told Gul Panag on the second day of ABP Network's Ideas of India Summit. Panag was chairing the session on 'Learning to speak up: Breaking the silence'. “During our work, we realised that awareness about it was lacking. Also that when you are aware, the treatment was lacking. So we are trying to bridge that gap between awareness and making it more accessible,” Birla added.
