In Baghpat, Uttar Pradesh, Nepali woman Tejkumari killed her three children and then committed suicide on Tuesday night. A dispute, despite seven years of married life, has raised questions for the entire area and the police investigation.
Baghpat: A heart-wrenching incident on Tuesday night in Tikri town of Baghpat district, Uttar Pradesh, has shaken the entire region. Tejkumari, a woman of Nepali origin, took her own life after allegedly killing her three daughters. This incident has left deep questions not only for the family but for the entire society. Police are investigating, but the true reason behind this drastic step has not yet become clear.
Tejkumari's New Responsibility with Three Daughters
Tejkumari was originally from Nepal. After her first marriage ended, she started working in Ludhiana, Punjab, where she met Vikas. Vikas was also divorced. They accepted each other's companionship and got married seven years ago. After marriage, they settled in Tikri town and began their new life.
Initially, life was normal and happy. Tej Kumari became the mother of her first daughter, Gunjan, as well as two more daughters after marriage—Kitto and Neera. They also received a house under the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana, giving the family a sense of stability. Everything seemed fine on the surface, but gradually, silent tension began to brew in their relationship.
Unspoken Dispute Between Husband and Wife
According to relatives and neighbors, Vikas had been sleeping in the courtyard of the house for many months. He maintained this habit even in bad weather. This clearly indicates that there was a serious disagreement between the couple, which perhaps neither of them made public.
Tejkumari appeared outwardly normal, fulfilling the role of a homemaker. She was busy with household chores and taking care of the children. But inwardly, she was going through mental stress. This stress eventually turned into a tragedy, which no one could have predicted.
Forensic Team Investigating Evidence
On Tuesday night, Tej Kumari was inside the house, and the door was locked from the inside. When the police arrived, four bodies were found in the room. The three young daughters and their mother were dead. This scene spread grief throughout the town.
The biggest question is why the door was locked. Usually, in suicide cases, the latch is engaged, but a locked door has complicated the investigation. Police believe that Tej Kumari committed suicide after killing the children, but they have not reached a conclusive finding. The forensic team is examining the evidence, and the post-mortem reports are awaited.
Tejkumari's Death is a Warning to Society
The deaths of Tej Kumari and her daughters are not merely a criminal incident but a serious warning to society. Why are women forced to pay such a heavy price for mental stress and domestic disputes? Where does the courage come from to involve innocent lives like children in such acts?
Experts believe that a lack of communication in relationships and the habit of hiding problems often lead to such incidents. Families and society must pay attention to ensuring that people struggling with mental stress can express themselves openly. Otherwise, such cases can prove fatal not only for the family but for the entire society.
