A shocking family tragedy in Bihar leaves a mother and two young children dead after consuming pesticide. Police probe domestic conflict and socio-economic distress as the 1-year-old son battles for life in hospital.
Bihar Family Tragedy
A devastating family tragedy has unfolded in a rural pocket of Bihar, painting a bleak picture of the intense socio-economic distress and escalating pressure faced by families in the region. The state police have launched a massive investigation after a mother and her two young children died tragically, allegedly after consuming a lethal dose of pesticide. Compounding the horror, her third, an infant son just one year old, is currently clinging to life in a nearby hospital, battling the powerful poison.
The incident has ripped through the quiet village, raising difficult questions about the underlying causes of such extreme steps, often taken in desperate silence. Initial police inquiries point toward a possible suicide pact following prolonged domestic disputes or crushing financial hardship. While authorities are working to confirm the exact sequence of events and the nature of the poison used, the local consensus highlights the unbearable burden of life faced by the family.
The grim sequence of events unfolded on Monday evening. The woman, identified locally, administered the toxic substance to her children before consuming it herself. Neighbors, alerted by the sudden and severe sickness, immediately rushed the family to the nearest primary health center. Tragically, the mother and her two children—one an infant girl and the other a slightly older boy—succumbed to the effects of the poison. The one-year-old son was immediately referred to a specialized government facility, where doctors are fighting to neutralize the potent effects of the agricultural chemical.
