A tragedy has struck Maharashtra's Beed district as a 25-year-old woman reportedly ended her life following alleged harassment by her husband and in-laws for not giving birth to a son. The victim, Aruna Uddhav Thombare, was a mother to three daughters, police confirmed on Monday.

The police have registered a case of abetment to suicide regarding the disturbing incident, which occurred in the rural locale of Undri village, Kaij tehsil, on Saturday afternoon. Sources reveal that the young mother took the drastic step by hanging herself at her home.
