Argument Over Household Chores and Freedom to Work
The viral video shows a heated confrontation between the two women, who can be seen pulling each other's hair. The argument escalated when the older woman, the aunt, slapped her niece. The niece retaliated, leading to a greater scuffle between the two.
Later, the aunt takes the girl's hand in her mouth and bites it with force. The victim alleged that the fight stemmed from her aunt's disapproval of her working outside the house. According to the complaint filed by her at the Rampura Police Station, the niece claimed her aunt made her perform all the household chores when she was a minor.
Now, as an adult with the responsibility of supporting two of her younger sisters, the girl said she needs to work to meet the household expenses. This newfound independence, she claimed, was the source of the conflict.
Police Investigation Underway
Following the incident, the niece, whose identity has not been revealed officially, lodged a formal complaint with the police. She described the woman as her adopted aunt and recounted the long-standing tension over her working outside. The girl's need to earn a living to support her siblings was a central point of her statement to the police.
According to a report by Aaj Tak, a Rampura police official confirmed that a complaint has been received and an investigation into the matter has been launched.
