Woman kills minor daughter, commits suicide

Enraged over her husband's beating, a 35-year-old woman allegedly committed suicide by setting herself ablaze along with her minor daughter.

The incident occurred last night in Indira Colony. Mamta's husband Guljari Lal was consuming liquor with a neighbour with whom he has a property dispute.

Mamta asked her husband to stay away from the neighbour because of the dispute but Lal ignored her advised and beat her when she was cooking food.

In a fit of rage, Mamta bolted a room from inside and poured kerosene on her and two daughters before setting ablaze, SHO Gandhi Nagar Rajesh Malik said today.
 

They were rushed to a hospital where the woman and her two-year-old daughter Kangna succumbed to the burn injuries this morning," he said, adding while the other is being treated at Sawai Man Singh government hospital.

Lal, a government servant, has been detained in this case.
