On Monday, November 13th, 2025, a devastating incident occurred in Dadhi village, Jalaun district, Kanpur. A 27-year-old woman, Aarti, tragically took her own life and that of her two young daughters in a horrific fire.

According to the police, Aarti, a resident of Mohana in Jalaun's Orai, had gotten married in 2017. Her husband, Devendra, runs a Paani-Puri (golgappa) supply business. Aarti's two brothers-in-law, Pawan and Jitendra, are both sub-inspectors, with Pawan posted in Ghaziabad and Jitendra in Agra.
