JAIPUR: A woman threw her two-year-old son into a well and then committed suicide by jumping in the well in Bhilwara's Pander police station area on Sunday. The woman took the extreme step due to frequent fights with her husband, who wanted her to care of his ailing mother. Several such suicides have been reported in the rural areas of the state over the past one year wherein mothers either threw their children in front of moving trains or into wells. Police said strained marital relationships were behind most of these incidents. According to the police, 28-year-old Seema Meena jumped into the well, about a kilometre from her in-laws' house at Laxmipura village near Pander, along with her son Ankit. "She had a fight with her husband Durgalal Meena , who is a farmer. The couple had a fight on Sunday. Durgalal wanted her to take proper care of his mother who suffers from a prolonged illness. She said she was doing her best. Durgalal left for work after the fight," said sub-inspector Lal Singh . The officer said Seema left for her parents' house around 8 am and jumped into the well after throwing Ankit into it. "Some villagers informed us about the suicide attempt. A team was rushed there. We fished their bodies out around afternoon. Their bodies were handed over to the family members after conducting the postmortem," said the officer. Similar cases of suicide have been reported in rural areas of Ajmer, Baran, Bhilwara, Churu, Jodhpur and Sikar districts. In most of these cases children have become the victims unnecessarily.
