A 37-year-old man stabbed and injured his wife, daughter and mother-in-law over a marital discord in east Delhi's Mayur Vihar on Sunday, police said.
The accused, Siddharth, an engineer who worked as technical support in Gurgaon, has been arrested, a police officer said.
The injured -- Aditi Sharma (37), her eight-year-old daughter and mother Maya Devi (60) -- were admitted to the Dharamshila Narayana Hospital, Vasundhara Enclave, they said.
