65-Year-Old Woman Consumes Poison After 'Bahu' Refuses To Help With Household Work In Indore

Indore (Madhya Pradesh): A 65-year-old woman committed suicide by consuming a poisonous substance at her home under MIG police station limits on Wednesday afternoon.

The woman allegedly took this extreme step after a heated argument with her daughter-in-law, who refused to do household work, and with her son over a money-related issue.

According to the police, the deceased has been identified as Dwarkabai, a resident of Kannu Patel Ki Chowl. Neighbors shared that her son had recently gotten married a few months ago.

Dwarkabai had asked her daughter-in-law to help with the household chores, but she refused. This led to an argument between the two.

Later, she also had a disagreement with her son over money matters. Feeling upset, she left the room, brought some poisonous substance from somewhere, and went into the bathroom, where she consumed it.

Soon after, family members and neighbors rushed her to MY Hospital for treatment. Despite the doctors’ efforts, she could not survive and passed away during treatment.

Dwarkabai had lost her husband earlier and was living with her son and daughter-in-law. The police are investigating the matter further to understand all the details behind the incident.
