Indore (Madhya Pradesh): A 25-year-old man died at a city hospital days after an alleged suicide bid at his residence in the Banganga area, police said on Wednesday. The deceased, Kanha Goswami, had reportedly got married against his family’s wishes last month. The statements of his family members are being recorded to ascertain the reason for his suicide attempt.
