In a shocking incident in Kawtha village, Nagpur, a 26-year-old woman is alleged to have scalded her husband with hot water after a domestic dispute on Thursday night. The victim, identified as Nilesh Tate, a 36-year-old milk seller, was reportedly attacked shortly after returning home from his daily milk distribution.

According to police reports, Nilesh and his wife, Karishma, frequently engaged in arguments over trivial household matters. The situation escalated dramatically when Nilesh was in the process of freshening up after work. Karishma allegedly approached him with a steel bucket filled with hot water and poured it over him, resulting in severe burns.

The hot water caused extensive injuries to Nilesh, affecting his throat, chest, neck, back, and hands. He was quickly transported to a medical facility for urgent treatment due to the seriousness of his injuries.

As of now, there has been no public statement from Karishma regarding the allegations against her.

This incident highlights the alarming issue of domestic violence, which continues to be a significant concern in many households. Authorities are urging individuals in similar situations to seek help and report any incidents of abuse. The investigation is ongoing, and further developments are expected as police continue their inquiries.
