The prevalence of depression among the participants of the present study is aligned with the data emerging from other countries (Goebert et al., 2009 and Vazquez and Blanco, 2006). It supports the universal nature of students’ depression. It seems that irrespective of the state and region university education is challenging and students are at risk of experiencing depression. Universities in the west take the students depression seriously and have established couselling services for students. In India, unfortunately, these facilities are absent.
