A newlywed woman hanged herself to death after her husband denied making poha - a popular Indian breakfast dish- in Madhya Pradesh.
The incident occurred in the Murar area of Gwalior.
22-year-old Kavita Yadav took the drastic step after her husband, Balkishan Yadav, failed to prepare the poha she had requested.
As per reports, 22-year-old Kavita Yadav had asked her husband Balkishan Yadav to make poha on Saturday. However, her husband denied her request and instead offered her dry fruits. She became upset and an argument ensued between the two. In a fit of anger, Kavita reportedly locked herself in a room.
When she did not come out for a long time, Balkishan went inside to check on her and was shocked to find Kavita hanging. He immediately informed his family and the police.
The police have registered a case and investigating all possible angles, including dowry harassment, as Kavita was a newlywed.
Kavita's body was sent for a post-mortem.
ASP Niranjan Sharma stated that the investigation is ongoing, and the police are questioning both Kavita's in-laws and her family members to uncover the truth.
“We are examining every aspect of the case, including the possibility of dowry-related harassment. The post-mortem report will provide more clarity, and if any evidence of foul play is found, strict action will be taken against those responsible,” ASP Sharma said.
