A 60-year-old woman allegedly committed suicide after poisoning her mentally challenged daughter in Atarkhedi village, police said.
Rajwati fed poison to Rani (25) before consuming it herself yesterday. While Rajwati died on the spot, her daughter was rushed to a district hospital where she died late last night.
The woman was facing financial problems which drove her to take the extreme step, according to another daughter of Rajwati.
