A woman, Anju, who was in ear mid-twenties, committed suicide in front of her 6-month-old son in Makarpura. Her husband, Rajkumar used to earn his living by doing freelance construction work. The woman had been married for 2 years when this incident happened and the two were originally from Rajasthan. Rajkumar left for his work as usual and then when he returned at 8 pm, no one was opening the door despite him repeatedly ringing the doorbell. He heard his 6-month-old son crying from inside the house so he broke open the door and he found his wife hanging from the fan in another room. The woman had left behind a suicide note where she proclaimed her love for her husband Rajkumar and her son Bhuvnesh and said no one was to be blamed for her death. She said she didn’t have the will to live.
