Kundapur, Dec 18: A woman committed suicide by jumping into a well near her house here on Monday December 17 night.

The deceased has been identified as Jyoti Sherigar (30), wife of Laxman Sherigar of Margoli near Basrur.

It is said that on Monday night at around 9.15 Jyoti had dinner with her two young children Meghana and Karthik. However, after dinner she went missing.

Her father-in-law who noticed that she was missing began a search and alerted the neighbours. As soon as it was found that she had jumped into the well, the locals called the fire brigade and the body was taken out.

Jyoti's husband Laxman is an employee with the railway department at Suratkal. Jyoti was staying with her two children and her father-in-law Gopal Sherigar. While daughter Meghana is in the 4th standard in a Kundapur English medium school, son Karthik goes to a local anganwadi.

The reason behind the suicide is not yet known.

    If these dignitories, politician who took so much interest in Jacintha's suicidal death in U.K. who was not even an Indian national at the time of her death, how much interest and concern they should show to the suicidal death of the woman in Kundapur.

    May her soul rest in peace, Amen.
    We should never argue with woman when they are depressed. It is not the time. We should understand their nature. No one should commit suicide, it is not good to end life by suicide. The life is precious, so live as much as possible. If any problems arise, ask or tell some body so that they tackle the issues, specially by counsellings. There are many good people who give good counsellings.

    Dinesh Poojary,

    Don't make fun of women in the name of political party when they undergo torture in Delhi or Mumbai.

    See what happens to women in your home town ! What will happen to the two little children now ?
