Woman throws five children into Ganga after quarrel with husband
Bhadohi: A woman in Uttar Pradesh's Bhadohi allegedly threw her five children into the Ganga following an argument with her husband, police said on Sunday.
Bodies of two children were fished out by divers, they said, adding that efforts are on to trace the other three. The deceased have been identified as Aarti (12) and Saraswati (10).
Superintendent of Police Ram Badan Singh said the incident took place in Jahangirabad village under the Gopiganj police station area late on Saturday night.
He said Manju Yadav and her husband Mridul Yadav often quarrelled in the past one year.
"Hence, she thought of killing her children by throwing them into the river," he said.
On Saturday night after an argument with her husband, Manju allegedly threw her children Aarti, Saraswati, Maateshwari, Shivshankar and Keshav Prasad into the river.
The SP said the river near the Jahangirabad ghat where the incident took place is deep. "The search for the children is on," he said.
Police said when the woman came to the ghat, the children raised an alarm but the fishermen there fled believing her to be a witch.
They said the woman did not leave the spot after the incident and herself told people about it on Sunday morning.

Trump says he ‘hasn’t even thought about’ continuing Iran ceasefire
Washington: US President Donald Trump has said he has not yet considered whether he would continue the ceasefire involving Iran, while also claiming the United States holds the advantage in negotiations.
Speaking to reporters, Trump said he was prepared to make a deal with “whoever is running the show” in Iran.
“They are fighting with each other, there’s tremendous infighting. They’re probably fighting for leadership in many cases. I think they’re fighting not to be leader because we knocked out two levels of leaders,” he said.
Trump added, “When they want they can call me. We have all the cards, we’ve won everything.”
Referring to ongoing negotiations, he said, “They gave us a paper that should’ve been better. And, interestingly, immediately when I cancelled it [envoy trip to Pakistan], within 10 minutes we got a new paper that was much better.”
“We talked about they will not have a nuclear weapon, very simple … They offered a lot, but not enough,” he added.
When asked whether he would continue the ceasefire, Trump replied, “I haven’t even thought about it.”
The remarks come as uncertainty remains over the future of the temporary truce and broader negotiations between Washington and Tehran.
