A 31-year-old woman allegedly immolated herself today along with her two minor children over some domestic dispute at Dera Salimpur village in this district, police said.
Seema Rani allegedly poured kerosene oil on herself, her son Harman (4) and daughter Heman Pari (1) and later set herself and the duo ablaze, they said.
"All three succumbed to their burn injuries," a police official said, adding that there appears to be some domestic dispute behind the incident.
Police said her husband Ram Singh works as a labourer and it was not immediately known if he was at home when the incident took place.
Investigation is underway, they said.
