The incident took place on Nov. 6, at the Jorpatki village in the Cooch Behar district of West Bengal, India.

During the scuffle, Kar rushed to his room and locked the door from the inside. He then reportedly consumed poison in an attempt to end his life, the Times of India reported.
Luckily, neighbors who heard the quarrel rushed to the home and broke open Kar’s bedroom door.
They then rushed him to Mathabhanga hospital from where he was later shifted to Cooch Behar District Hospital.
No updates were available about his current condition, however, local reports suggested that Kar survived the suicide attempt and is recovering at the hospital.
