In the attack, Azad Singh, a resident of Joginder Nagar here, was seriously injured and was fighting for his life in a local hospital, they further said.
The woman, Sukhwant Kaur, took this extreme step last night when Singh was sleeping, Jalandhar Assistant Commissioner of Police, Satinder Kumar, said, adding she doubted that her husband had illicit relations with some other woman.
"The woman first hit her husband with a rod when he was sleeping which left him unconscious. Thereafter, she chopped off his private parts with a knife and then disposed them in a toilet," the ACP said.
On a complaint of Singh's father, a case under relevant section of the IPC has been registered against the woman.
The couple have two children from their marriage.
