    Solution

    World Mental Health Day was first initiated in 1992 by the World Federation for Mental Health (WFMH). The 2024 theme is "Mental Health at Work." This global observance aims to raise awareness about mental health issues and mobilize support for mental healthcare worldwide. Notably, the Economic Survey 2023-24, presented by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on July 22, 2024, discussed mental health for the first time, noting that according to the National Mental Health Survey 2015-16, 10.6% of Indian adults suffer from mental disorders, with treatment gaps ranging from 70% to 92%.
