Domestic woes drive NRI to suicide

LUDHIANA: The pressure exerted by his wife and in-laws drove a 33-year-old NRI to suicide. Before he poisoned himself at his Tagore Nagar residence, Amit Bansal, a permanent citizen of Canada, wrote a 15- page suicide note holding his wife and several members of his in-laws\' family responsible for his death. Amit, who was undergoing treatment at Dayanand Medical College and Hospital, died on Saturday.

According to Harjeet, Amit and his wife came home seven to eight months ago and supposed to return to Canada in March next year.



He said Amit married Nisha nine years ago and they have an eight-year-old daughter, Yuvika Bansal.
