Dumka: A 26-year-old woman, who was apparently unhappy over her husband not gifting her a saree on Dussehra, allegedly killed herself in Jharkhand’s Dumka district.

According to reports, police said she jumped in front of a moving train at Bagjhopa village in Dumka district on Saturday.

The deceased has been identified as Sendo Devi.

“The woman had asked for a new saree for Dussehra, but her husband, a tractor driver, could not afford it. This led to her taking the extreme step,” a police officer said, as quoted by India Today.
