Lucknow: A 30-year-old woman from Unnao district suffered 90 per cent burn injuries after allegedly attempting to immolate herself following a row with her family in Lucknow’s Vikramaditya Marg area, police said on Tuesday.

Deputy Commissioner of Police (Lucknow Central) Raveena Tyagi said, “A woman attempted to immolate herself by pouring flammable liquid on her near Vikramaditya Marg in the Gautam Palli police station limits.”

“Police personnel extinguished the flames and admitted her to Dr Shyama Prasad Mukherjee (Civil) Hospital,” she added.

A family dispute seems to be the reason for her taking the extreme step, she added.
